Crochet: My new obsession

Published on by My Thoughts

Aloha Family!

I hope you are doing well and having a safe day!

I always get excited when I am writing posts like this; posts through which I am sharing with you new sides of my personality, something I always enjoy.

I have a lot of hobbies, and I can’t pick a favourite one. My tastes and interests change constantly. Crochet is my new hobby.

My mom actually is a professional. She started it a long time ago, and I’ve always wanted to try it out. Since I’ve moved out for College, I couldn’t learn it. But when I came back this summer, I decided to give it a go. I LOVE it! It looks easy, but trust me it’s a challenging activity. To be honest, I’ve almost gave up (sometimes I get angry 😬 when it doesn’t look good or I miss something  🙈 ), but luckily my mom is always encouraging me and helping me correct my mistakes.

I am so happy with the little piece I’ve managed to knit, and excited to share it with you. I can’t wait to do more. It’s hard work but worth it!

Here I’ve used 2 technics; that’s why it doesn’t look the same   🙂

~~Guys, always look for new hobbies. Discover yourself, and don’t let your fears stop you from doing what you want to do and try 👊. It will not work from the first try, but the fun part is the journey, the learning and getting better.

<< Success in life comes when you simply refuse to GIVE UP. With goals so STRONG that obstacles, failure, and loss only act as MOTIVATION >> 👍

I hope you guys enjoy this post. I will be happy if you share your thoughts and opinions about crochet and our topic “trying out new hobbies”.  😉

Now it’s your turn: Do you have a favourite hobby? Did you discover a new hobby this summer?

  2. Knitting is one of the best hobbies in the world! My mom knits and I’m IN LOVE with this her obsession! She has already made a scarf, a jacket, two or free cute gorgeous hats and more and more… And, let’s be honest, handmade pieces of stuff (clothes, bookmarks, accessories and etc) are made with love, so when I wear my Pom-Pom scarf it feels like my mom’s hugging, like she wants me to get warm. Incredible! I’m glad you enjoy the crochet! I think that’s the hobby of the soul. Your results in knitting are insane, you’re doing great!!!! 🙌🏻💜
    And, yeah, I get “crochet” and “knit” in similar way, sorry for that 😜

    All the best,

  4. I only know how to make hats and scarves on a loom but I want to expand and learn crochet too 😂 I tried it once but the beginning is so hard. I feel like once you get the hang of it, it’ll be easy?

  7. My favorite hobby is definitely drawing. And you’re so right! I think learning new hobbies is a great way to enrich your life and broaden what you know of the world. And if it’s not for you, then at least you know. Great post! I’ve also tried crochet back in high school, didn’t last two months 😅 Hope you have fun tho!

      1. Thank you for following!!! ❤ I've been crocheting my whole life but it's really only been the past few years that I've felt confident enough to make something other than blankets. My advice to anyone that is learning to crochet – be brave!!! If it's not working out it's no big deal, pull it apart and try again. It won't be long before you won't even remember a time when you didn't know how to crochet. I'm really excited to see what comes off of your hook!!! 😀

    1. Oh how exciting ! It should be so much fun. I am sure with you grandmother it is even better. You will get to learn from her. And, in my opinion, fall is the best season to learn crochet. It makes the atmosphere so cozy and lovely. ❤ ❤ All the best . Have a nice and safe day ❤

      4. You are welcome. I enjoyed our conversation. I truly appreciate people who take time and discuss with people; not rabots who barely say 2 words. I am more than happy that I followed you. I discovered not only a good blog but also a friend. ❤

  13. What a great accomplishment!! My mum tried to teach me and I still have a started piece with the needle still in it to be finished.. I’m so bad at it.. but like you said.. good to keep trying at the things you are not great at. Nice to have connected here ☺️☺️

    1. Oh thank you 🙈 Don’t worry because I stopped so many times and sometimes I get lazy…. You don’t have to be consistent or consider it as something you have to do. You can put it down and come back later on. Glad you loved this post. Thank you for the sweet comment❤
