My Very First Crochet

 

[ENTRY 59..✍️]

Yesterday, I thought of crocheting just to see if I have any hand with it because I often notice in classic novels how the female characters always do stuff like this in front of a hearth. We don't have a fireplace, sadly, but a yarn and a crochet needle, that should be easy to find. 

Unfortunately, the crochet hook I found is too small for the only yarn I gathered in the house so I went around the community to see if I could scour from any of the stores the appropriate size I needed. One guy gave me a knife. The fuck?

It was okay, he just misheard me. He was actually kinda cute. He wore glasses and had a nerd vibe.

I walked for about 30 minutes and failed miserably. Not one of the shops I've gone to sell crochet hooks. But my hands were really itching to try crochet and sometimes, when I've made my mind up with something, I do it pronto because my impulsivity isn't capable of waiting.

So I just made my own crochet needle out of a hanger. Thanks to YouTube and DIY tutorials.

I began working my hands off in the afternoon and it made me really sleepy and my right arm hurt so I just continued this morning. Despite the fatigue it gives my arm, I have to say it's really soothing and satisfying. Like, there's something therapeutic about it. Almost like listening to music.. Only better because you're being productive and you can listen to music itself at the same time.

I finished in an hour or two and gah, I'm so proud! It's not perfect but hey, it's my first ever crochet and it's so cute! I didn't know making a crop top would be this easy. I've used up all the yarn but I think I'm going to do more of this in the future because it's a pretty cool hobby. Ooh! Perhaps, I'll make sweaters for my family this Christmas.. Now that's a nice thought! Hehe. Kisses ❤
