Hi! To anyone reading this who is really frustrated and want to quit ,I was there once. It may seem impossible at first but let me tell you, it really isn’t! You just need some patience and time and boom you’re an expert. As someone with neither any patience or time, I decided to pick up crochet as a hobby as I thought it was quite cool you could just make whatever you wanted. At first, I watched so many TH-cam tutorials and was close to giving up. Despite putting away crochet many times, I always had hope that i could learn it. After about 3 weeks or so, something clicked. I went on TH-cam and decided I was ready to make my first bunny. Yea sure, it was confusing and a big step up from just doing squares. However, I just kept trying and watching the video and I figured it out! It wasn’t great.. but it was definitely something. I was really proud and my family were so surprised that my hobby may have been my hidden talent. From then on, I became obsessed. I crocheted day and night and it was becoming a daily routine. I really enjoyed it. After a few months of crocheting, some people saw my work and asked if I sold it. I contemplated quite abit but decided to start my own business. I was so shocked by the amount of people who were willing to buy my stuff. I got many positive feedbacks and compliments. To whoever still reading this, please don’t give up on crochet. It can absolutely change your life. Don’t forget, I was like you once on TH-cam rage quitting. I started with single crochet uneven squares to making bags, toys, cardigans, headbands. I learnt everything off of TH-cam. Did I mention I started when I was 13? Im 15 now and crochet has changed my life. Shameless plug but I’m currently crocheting dog collars and using the money to donate to a pet organisation called hope dog rescue. It’s ok if you can’t purchase anything but a follow will help me tremendously. Instagram @bone_appetitt. Thank you to the person who read this long winded comment. I hope you continue your journey with crochet! Don’t ever give up!
You should make an Etsy account since you're only 15!! The possibilities are endless!! That's not a joke!!! Thanks for the inspiration. I'll keep trying!
Thank you for your comment! I'm not gonna lie, I've been contemplating quitting so many times! This really encouraged me to keep going!!❤
I just subscribed to your channel (I don't have insta so I can't follow u there 🙁). But as ur first TH-cam subscriber, I hope you reach great places with ur love of crochet. I'm 13 rn and am trying to pick up crotchet to make a scarf for my mom. 😅
Thanks!! I was dying at first too. But slowly, I began to actually be able to do something. I started a couple days ago. (well I actually started a couple months ago but I quit because I was so impatient) I can make squares super fast, and this comment has inspired me to attempt to make an bunny.
I read the whole comment. Im 41 and learning now. I sit at my job all night doing nothing so i figured id learn. Its been a couple days. My father goes to the senior center and I asked him if I could go with him on sewing day and learn by watching someone. She showed me a few things and im guessing along the way. My problem is getting the hook into the next hole. So im here... Thats awesome, ill add you on IG.
Who else is here during the corona virus looking for a new hobby? :)
Literally me
Meeeeee
Me Haha
Me 🤣🤣
Meeee sadly 😂😂😂
I CAN'T DO ANYTHING I'M CRYING THIS IS SO HARD AND I'M SO STUPID
This is quite difficult to do, your not stupid. Do you think Van Gogh learned to paint overnight? No! It took years of practice to get that good. The trick is to try and try again. If you get frustrated, leave for ten minutes. Do something that makes you happy, or calm. Like meditating, listening to music, watching a lighthearted or funny video. Then come back, and try again
It's normal not to get a skill right away. You should really just practice making chains first. For as long as it takes to get the motion down pat of getting the hook through and a keeping a good tension. Then move on to other stitches.
i'm never trying again💀
My hook isn't catching my yarn. Incredibly frustrating. We can do this
I GOT IT

I am the most uncoordinated person ever, tried to learn for years and now finally someone who shows it over and over and explains where needle should face. Made a few mistakes on the second row etc but unravelled and just kept trying. Amen thank you

SAME😭🤚🏻ITS SO DIFFICULT
Haha. Join the party!
if you're struggling with the starting knot I recommend watching another video
I tried it this way and it just didn't work for me
I have been watching crochet videos for 4 days and I had decided to take up on a new hobby this year, I know this will be hard at first but I am determined to do this
Great video! I'm so thrilled that I can enjoy interesting content like this without stressing over finances. I used to feel depressed because of my $85,000 debt, but thankfully, I managed to pay it off and am still earning 5k-18k biweekly for myself. God bless my investment advisor
Congratulations, how did you do it?
Hi, could you be kind enough to share the info of the investment advisor guiding you?

the test:

Ugh
Lmao
for me it's easy 👍🙏📍🦄🇲🇲
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
me: a nursing student who can insert IVs and do intricate wound care
also me: cant do a simple crochet stitch
Did you try other tutorials? Did you try using a light color yarn you can see well? I just completed this and while I did fine, it's only because I already knew how years ago. She does something kind of funny when she breaks down the yarn over or hooking the yarn that makes it seems much more complicated. My hook doesn't face the same direction and change as many directions and I hook the yarn just fine.
@@ivygreenj oh yeah im good now lol im making a sweater
@@CHoferxox omg thats amazing how is it goingg?
@@olehoyen its going! i made a couple headbands, half of a blanket (need more yarn) and now starting a sweater! this vid helped after i watched it like 12 times 😂 thanks for
asking!
@@CHoferxox oh wowww.. i just ordered my yarn a few minutes ago and im going to start tomorrow ⛄️ so excited but a little scared after reading the comments of how hard it is 😭
It's my birthday today and I'm learning how to crochet! Gifted with a new skill. Super easy tutorial to understand. I'm a knitter and Crocheting would boggle my mind but this video made me realise how fun and easy it can be! Thank you so much!
I want to thank you soo very much for teaching me again. I knew when I was a teenager in 70s but of course, now I'm in my 60s. Am replacing smoking with crochet. Am sure I'll watch over n over. Thank you soo much!!
me: *finish’s one stitch*
also me: i think i’m ready for my frog hat
That's me

Yes lol
My girlfriend laughed, when I said that I want to crochet while she watches netflix. I am white straight male over 30 whose hobbies are martial arts and videogames and I work in logistics. I want to crochet something for my rats. Like a bed in their house. Thank you for tutorial. 👍
You’re cooler than me
This comment is honestly the best thing hahaha
Your goal is perfection
this is the best comment i’ve ever seen
Very cool. Love a man who thinks of his pets and wants the best for them! You go
I don't crochet yet, but i am a kandi kid and it made me realize how much i like making things. I already knew i liked making things like drawings and stories, but ive started to realize just how much i love making physical things too. With kandi you can make stuff like bags, clothes, etc and its gotten me interested in crochet. Crochet seems more difficult, but crocheting things seems a lot more convenient than kandi especially when it comes to stuff like clothes and bags since kandi is literally just beads lol. Crocheting seems like something that could make you very independent- i mean, you can make your own clothes from home! This video seems very helpful and i cant wait to watch it again when i finally get my hands on some yarn
I TRIED IT 27 TIMES, And KEEP GETTING THE HOOK STUCK
Learning crochet is one of my goals for 2024💜. I'll try my best.
Im also with you, just brought the basic items to start my crochet-battle😅😅😅😅😅, bless me

Congrats 👏😭
I thought knitting and crochet are the same😩
@@keru835 i think with knitting you use two sticks right? 😟
LITERALLY
Looking forward to making a hat without DPN's!!!!!
I'm so glad I came to read the comments! I was ready to give up and now I see I'm not the only one who watched the same thing 10 times and still struggle. I'm not giving up!
Day 1 of me learning crocheting. I'm so desperate to learn it and make my hobby wish me luck♡
After having re-watched the same part eight times, I look through the comments and breathe a sigh of relief I AM SO NOT ALONE IN THIS. Phew. Thank you for your patience in making this for all of us. I will continue to keep watching it and making my hands move until I get it, then I will comment my success too!
no because me too I have watched the slip knot part about 10 times because I keep forgetting
😆 I'm struggling too! Nice to know someone started crocheting the day I did
Same I cannot chain because my fingers keep slipping and it just becomes a wreck!
@@zoraackerman1684finally learnt how to chain without it slipping! What about you?
Omg me also I can not get past the first pull I feel like a idiot
3:35 “now we are going to learn how to do a single crochet” me: that wasn’t it? 👁👄👁
If you are having trouble I recommend “hooked by robin” I know it can be hard but it just needs practice :) she’s a TH-camr
Omg this commment made me laugh so hard I choked because I said the same thing and the emojis didn’t make it no better 😂🤣😭
I was so proud of myself then that part came up😭
SAME
lol i am actually not comfotable using crochets for knitting so i use pen nibs
This was the easiest tutorial yet. Thank you!!! Here in 2024.
Dear Daisy,
Thank you so much. I did my first 2 rows of crochet while watching this video. My mom tried to teach me so many times and all I could do is the chain at the beginning.. my mom has sadly passed away. I wish she could see me doing this right now. I hope both of us made her smile in heaven. Thank you x
Can't tell if this is hard or I'm just stupid, probably just me.
Its really harddd
Hard for beginners, when you get the hang of it, it's really easy. Keep Going!
No, its difficult on the first try. Its even still a bit difficult for me 4 months later, but I got better. Its okay to admit that youre still in practice. Youre not slow
Don’t be discouraged. Just keep practicing
It’s hard
My new year resolution for 2023 is to learn crochet. I've been wanting to learn since I was a teenager and now I'm 50 :)
Watching your video motivated me. It is my first step into learning and because I believe I can do it, tomorrow I'll go buy the yarn and hooks ❤️
Me too! We got this
Beginner as well and I'm trying so hard to do the second step hopefully i can get it i don't have patience but this year i want to try and give it my all
Me too. Just about to buy some starter kit. If you find any useful links or youtubers please share 😊
me too!!! we’re gonna get so good at it
Same here!! I'm just starting today. Let's all do our best. We can do ittt!!!
Just to let you know that I nearly gave up but came back again years later and copied this completely step by step and lo and behold I’ve just done a great little square. Just a little thing but it’s made me happy 😊 so cheers. Onwards and upwards, I’ve definitely rushed it before and gave up. It is weird how the muscle memory does kick in eventually.
Who else messes up once, then immediately gives up?
Don’t give up!!! It just takes a bit of practice! When I first started learned I called it chaos crocheting and it would turn into a beautiful mess :)
I feel like she’s going to fast
evryone: crochets something amazing
me: crochets a a huge line and being proud
same
Aaa that's meeee
lol SAMEEE
Something to be truely proud of my friend! :D
Some people don't even know how to do that. (I'm some ppl) lol
Be proud of what you have accomplished no matter how big or small! Keep up the good work!!
my crochet square is a crochet circle what am i doing wrong!
🤷♀
Your way of explaining was soo good ...i made it in my first try thank you soo much
Hello everyone! Just wanted to jump in here to encourage everyone and let everyone know when I first began crocheting I couldn't even read instructions! But now I can make anything! And it really does get easier once you get the hang of it, and please don't be too hard on yourselves! As far as the stitches go if you start out too tightly get a bigger hook and if you start out too Loosely use a smaller hook! It's really easy Once you understand, it gets easier as you go along and yes it is tough to grasp in the beginning, because your brain is trying to learn something new LOL! However once you patiently continue to do it and don't give up and practice a little more each day, and just relax it will be fun. so, make it fun it! And think of how wonderful it is that you're learning something new!
Thanks! Now I feel a bit better and a bit more confident my crotchet skills will improve ☺
thank you :)
?
Thanks, I think the hook that came with my yarn is too small. It's a 4. It's so hard to get the yarn through the loops, the hook keeps getting stuck. Will have to wait until my hook set arrives next week. Then I can use a much bigger one to practice correctly. As it is now, the loops are so tiny, I can barely get the hook through and I keep losing my yarn. Pretty sure this isn't how it's supposed to go!
@HRH. PRINCESS I JUST BOUGHT MY HOOKS AND YARN TODAY IM READY TO LEARN
4 years ago I watched this video, after my grandma who crochets said I couldn’t ever learn. Nowadays I teach her new patterns, crochet remains one of my favourite hobbies. I just wanted to come back and say thank you, this video changed my life.
Hi
Very sweet of you. ❤
HOW DID YOU MANAGE?? I CANT DO A CHAIN AND IVE TRIED 86 TOMESS😭😭
@@Pegsta I got 2 ppl in my household watching these vids constantly and try learn the skills.
@@Pegsta my bestie gave me yarn and the stick type thing there Using idk crochet? now I’m tryna learn
😂
This tutorial helped me so much!!! I was struggling to crochet my friends didn’t help me at all but this helped me crochet Tysm!!!!!!!!!!
I been looking for a video that go slow like I bet looking for videos for 3 days 😢😢
For anyone having a hard time (like I was) keeping your rows the same amount of chains and symmetrical, hold the yarn really loose and do very little tension so the loops are bigger. It makes it so much easier to learn that way! Even using a hook that’s a little bit bigger too. I finally am getting the hang of it now
this was great advice thank you!! i was starting to get frustrated lol
Thank you for this advice! 😊
Thank you for the advice!! I was definitely having this issue
I'm still frustrated and can't figure out how to make bigger loops without it falling apart
@@yournotsolocalqueer have you tried a bigger hook? 😊
pls we’re all crying bc we can’t crochet 😭 don’t give up, it’s hard when you get confused. just keep trying. you can do it :)
not to be that one person but this is definitely the most likes i've ever gotten, thank you so much!
No I’m annoyed I can’t crochet 😩
thank god i’m not the only one
How you doing now can u crochet it’s been 2month since u wrote this ? 😭
I did it after 20,000 years
WILL YOU SHUT YOUR MOU- your right I can’t do it
My first try looks a mess
I'm using the wrong hook. This is what I use to crochet my hair for a protective hair style😂😂😂
You are a good teacher
I will be rewatching until I get it right...
I am going to get the correct hook
Thank you so much! I am a beginner and whenever I can't understand the basic stitches in any tutorial, I come back to your beginner friendly videos. Thank you so much for making these❤
I just wanted to say that I am an 82 year old man who took up crotchet many many years ago as a holiday pastime, by following a Patons booklet called ‘first steps in crochet’, belonging to my mother. I found it much easier and quicker than knitting. My favourite was to crochet baby matinee coats . But then life took over and I let it slide. Now I’m back since I rashly promised my grown up granddaughter a pair of mittens for Christmas. So I’m having to relearn the skills. Thankfully there are lots of very clear books and TH-cam videos like this one to help. My reason for writing is to encourage more men to take up this hobby. Once you’ve mastered the process it is very relaxing and I haven’t had anyone mock me for doing it - mind you I am a sturdy specimen.
If you like crocheting baby clothes you should get in touch with your local hospital. Wehn premature babies are born they need warm clothes so some hospitals accept donations of hats, cardigans and booties. I've found them to be a good way to keep up my skills without anything going to waste
Thank you Amelia for telling me that. If I get back to my former level I will give it serious consideration but at the moment I am struggling more than I thought I would!
i'm a 14yo learning to crochet to make my cat a sweater :)
Such a noble thought Amelia... I will keep this in mind.. Stay blessed🌹
Stay blessed Brian 🌹
Watching this video
My brain: EASY! DO IT!
Hand: SERIOUSLY?
same issue with me!
My hand don't wanna work!!
Same here😂😂
Especially if you are left handed!
I recommend “hooked by robin” I know it can be hard but it just needs practice :) she’s a TH-camr
This was my goal for 2024 and i loved it, it was suprisingly easy at first but when it came to other shapes, i had problems but remember to never give up and keep continuing on your dreams❤and now i can crouchet properly and make diffrent animals and things...like a penguin,whale,bags and hats! (mini hats too) it really became my daily life😅
Everyone is saying that this was really hard but for me this definitely nice and I didn’t find it that difficult , i am also a beginner and this is my first ever chrochet and it turn out to be ok !! It was as a great tut !!❤❤❤
Edit: by the way i am not even using the hook and just made one by myself with a hanger 😅
I have a tip for anyone struggling that really helped me. Practice just the chain stitch for a long time, I did it for like an hour and a half while watching a show. Do the chain until you get your tension right and get used to holding the yarn, then you can do single crochet easily!! I also made a chain with 5 different methods of holding the yarn and compared them to see which method worked the best for me.
ok tysm i’m getting so frustrated trying to keep up with the video and do this at the same time
Thank you! This will surely help.
Tysm, I’ve been getting so upset that my chains have been so tight or too loose this is really going to help me
my mom says that too
Just starting to learn crochet here too, watching episodes of Chopped (edit: Pioneer Woman is another great show that's more relaxed) while practicing chain stitch at the same time, so we're getting cooking inspiration while at the same time also getting in crochet practice: multitasking to the max! (Haha)
Do your best, everyone! Everything and anything is always possible 🙂
Who else is here in 2024

I will edit this everyday to see how well i learn to crochet.
Day 1. I learnt how to chain and made a braclet out of chain stitches
Day 2. I learnt how to do a single crochet! ( in the morning )
Day 3. I am getting better at doing single crochet!
Day 6: ( Sorry I forgot to update it.) I can now crochet a square! Tysm!
Hello a update I have been crocheting for a while now and I can do so many different stitches. I'm working on a sweater now!!! Thank you so much for this tutorial!

update? 😦
The amount of times I had to take a break before I lost my temper with this is astounding. Lol
Still working on it, but it tests my patience for sure.
I’ve been rewinding the first part for the 100th time bro
These comments made me feel whole again after crumbling down trying to make my hands do anything they are supposed to. Thanks y'all :D

Hi Emily, am sorry for the introduction in your comment but I find you attractive and interesting I don't know if I could get a reply from you so we can get to know each other more and thank you 👍

I am ao determined to get this. I am watching, rewinding, watching again, putting rhe video down to gwt rhe hang of just making one decent looking chain, fetting the muscle memory down of how to use the hook...
I bought one of those little plush toy crochet kits because I hear that is a really good way to learn.
I will learn how to crochet and crochet well if it's the last thing I do!
This tutorial was so much easier to understand than every single other one i've seen, you really follow every step with care and explain it in a way that is really easy to understand, thank you :3

I’m here in 2024 and this was SUPER helpful. Thank you 😭
Restarted crochet after 16 years!! Thank you for your tutorial. It made it super easy for me to follow along :)😊
is anyone else here because they wanna make the harry styles cardigan
i really spent $50 for harry and now i cant even make a square 😔
YES AHA LITERALLY
Sarah Sandberg I also just spent $45 on yarn and equipment knowing very well that I can’t even do a square and especially not a whole ass cardigan😌
fine line me too I spent 2 hours learning and still can’t crochet
Sarah Sandberg I can imagine the struggle. I’m still waiting for my package to arrive but I read a comment where someone said it took her a couple of weeks to get the hang of it. And like I love the cardigan but T W O weeks just to get the hang of it??? I don’t know if I have the patience.
THANK YOU!!! I DID IT!! I've never understood crochet. I've tried years ago, failed, got frustrated, and then gave up. I decided to give it a try one more time. It took a few hours of trying and starting over (my error because I kept loosing count), I got it. I'm so happy. I'm gonna make a bunch of them, sew them together, and make a pillow!
I recommend to newbies( I am one too) that knowledge of other types of working with yarn help significantly. For me it was finger-knitting and making a chunky blanket. It really laid a foundation for me. Also, I found that using a bernat baby blanket yarn makes it not only easy to hold but also that it’s easier to see. Happy crocheting!
Thank you for this! My mom began a large crochet blanket with her grandmother 20-25 years ago, but she died 13 years ago and they never finished it. I was named after her,(my great grandmother) and I thought it would be cool to learn how, but I literally have never have done crochet ever, so this is really helpful! Hopefully after a while of practicing I’ll be able to finish the blanket :)
This is beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
aww gl!!
You go boy or girl
Update: after undoing a few stitches on the blanket, I’ve figured out what the stitch is. So far I can’t find what it’s called, or if it’s an official stitch, but I can *finally* finish it and it all started here 🤍
Basically the stitch was like a double crochet, you get three loops on your hook, but instead of pulling through 2 and then 2 again, you pull through all 3.
Don’t know if that makes sense lmao, thank y’all for all your support
Update! It’s called a half double crochet 🤍

Why is everyone wanting to make a Harry styles cardigan I just want to make a hat for my dog.
Same I'm trying to make a sweater for my cats!!!
I want to make a mushroom hat
Who’s Harry styles
i want to make my dog a frog hat
That made me smile, I have to admit. Thanks! :)
I haven't touched a crochet hook in almost 50 years, and even back then I only did berets, because I gave up on creating a straight line, and just did increasing circles until I had the width I desired, then decreased until it would fit my head. It was fun, easy, but not what I wanted to do. My crochet tutor of the time always went too fast and never really explained things clearly. In this one video you have elucidated the biggest mystery that haunted my early attempts - I was missing that extra chain at the end!!!!! Now that I am retired I foresee getting back into crocheting finally, and I am going to be visiting your videos a lot!
That's amazing!!!
How have you been doing with crochet?
I was hoping to start up again after many years. I am 65 now and have arthritis real bad. I am determined to pick it up again. Tired of television shows and reading. Too much online stuff too.
@@jacquelinesmith3375 good luck :D
@@tia4108 you too. Good day!
Thank you so much! I am a beginner and whenever I can't understand the basic stitches in any tutorial, I come back to your beginner friendly videos. Thank you so much for making these
Thank you! I have watched several videos on crocheting and yours is the first that actually had good images and explanations of what you were doing. I was finally able to do my 2nd chain!

I cried during the whole video, and even when I turned it off, I was confused and frustrated. But then I started to recite the whole thing. This was helpful and aggravating at the same time😅😅
You are such a Blessing to all of us beginners.
Thank you Sister.

I am determined to learn how to crochet by 2024! Since a child I can always remember being so fascinated by the skillful technique one has learned to put together a blanket and all sorts of clothing etc... I will be turning 50 years old in January expecting my first grandchild due in March of 2024! Better late than never! I am really hoping to to one day master such a skill.
Forget about mastery and focus on getting projects done and I'm sure before you even notice it you'd have become proficient. Good luck on your journey and congratulations on your expected grandchild :)
Goodluck on your journey and congratulations on your coming grandchild ♥️ Wish u all the best!
@@annotes7785 Thank you for leaving such a kind comment! Very much appreciate all that you’ve said!. Happy Holidays!
@@nanarmushyan2351good luck but.. you may not be able to do it. I’m still stuck on double crochet. I just cannot do it. I hope you can..
@@Linkiful-Animator We don’t need that kind of talk. We need encouragement. I think you can do it, it just takes time.
I’m so happy!!! Ive managed to learn it completely on my second try!!!!
Update: I’m now crocheting a blanket for my dog :)
I was watching other videos and they were no good but your video was a careful step by step video and I truly appreciate that ❤
To those who are frustrated, I found that it helped to slow it down to 0.5 speed so you can follow along slowly. Also, there's the added bonus of simplydaisy sounding incredibly drunk.
Lmao
lol
You’re a lifesaver
Omg i played it and she does😭😭
Thank you for this amazing comment
For other new people finding this difficult, It took me about 5 weeks of trying to finally make this same square. It's not as perfect, but it took me a long time to figure it out. I'm really glad I kept trying, even though it was difficult for me.
no one like a showpff
@@stevengandhi5273 shut up
@@stevengandhi5273 They aren't showing off. They are explaining to people that it may take a while before they are finally able to make something. It is reassuring to people who feel like they aren't getting it and that they won't ever be successful. That should have been completely obvious.
@@stevengandhi5273 dude wtf
Thank you so much for the encouragement!
I went to hit like on this because I am reminding myself of the basics after walking away from the hobby for a few years and realize that I hit like on this when I started crocheting six years ago. Thanks for the video!
Oh my goodness I love this comment section, so lovely to see all connections and stories. Glad to see I'm not alone in how confused I am either 😅
me who’s and expert at making rainbow loom bracelets, but still fucks up in the middle of the work:
THATS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT I WAS LIKE THIS IS EXACTLY HOW YOU RAINBOW LOOM!
Oml memories I used to sell em-

@@bubaaaaaaaaa samee I can't- I used to do so many things and now I can't remember shit😭

BIG football player Rosie Greer started knitting decades ago and showed off his skill on a television talk show. My mom (bless her memory) was of German heritage and she said that when she was a child knitting was considered a man's activity among the old Germans. Some cultural "norms" are rather silly, aren't they?
I am a boy and I and I want to crochet. Thank you for teaching me.
This was probably the best tutorial I have seen because you did everything slowly and actually showed us how to crochet instead of expecting us to know what a “single crochet” was 😔✊
Learning crochet is getting on my nerves and just makes me want to stab myself with this hook/needle or something (idont even know what it's called) but i am very eager to know. I want to be able to make crochet outfits, bags and cute stuffs to give to my love ones and for myself too. Patience, please rain down on all of us crochet beginners. Amen.
Soo serious questionn do you know how to do it now?
@@sharifahsyed1654I was just about to ask the same thing💀
I started during the pandemic but I quit. But I started again. Gosh I wanna throw the damn hook away.
🙏
i’m glad reading the comments that i’m not the only one struggling. she makes it look so simple!!
I have super shaky hands so i feel your pain 😭
The journey to learn something new never stops
Finally!! I’ve finished the square today! It was so hard doing it, it took me half a year. Thank you for this tutorial, this one helped a lot, among the other tutorials I watched!💗✨
Me sitting in my bed at 3:50am because I wanna make the Harry styles cardigan:
