Hooked on Crocheting: My Journey with Yarn

For me, hobbies are great way to relax and unwind. My hobby is crocheting. It rejuvenate me after a tiring daily routine. It makes me happy and I feel relaxed. I learned to crochet from my grandmother when I was 10 years old. She taught me all that I know today.
I started my needlework from cross stitching easy bags and keychains and then started making plushies and gloves. I have completed a few projects like small octopus, basket, watermelon hand bag, mittens, headphone accessories and table mat. Though I started with simple projects I’ll gradually work my way up to more complex patterns like weaving hats, shawls and blankets.
I also believe in brightening someone’s day with a heartfelt handmade gift and I’ve always found immense joy in using my craft to share with my friends and family.
As I wrap up this chapter of my crocheting journey, I’m filled with gratitude for the countless moments of joy, inspiration, and connection that this craft has brought into my life. I have other hobbies as well like sketching and playing basketball but I love crocheting the most.
