Entry #1 A New Hobby

 Hello! Welcome back to my page, today I would like to talk to you all about something that I enjoy, something I mentioned in my last blog. I'd like to talk about crochet today, as surprising that may be, I love crocheting. It's a new hobby I got when I was on my holiday trip to spend time with a friend in a different state. They took me out to go get a bunch of supplies for me, to introduce me into it. Now I'm still not so great at but I will be trying my best! It started off simple with just basic crochet tasks like making a slip not, then a chain stich and eventually going into a half double crochet. Those two things are from what I've learned very important when it comes to working on bigger projects. For example the crochet project I am working on now is a scarf, I wanted to create something for them as a token of appreciation and I decided a scarf, something to keep them warm. I'm following this really helpful guide from Sewrella on YouTube, she goes in major details on what exactly you need to do. I will show you the final product of what the scarf will look like at the end.

I am currently about half-way done with the half double crochet step, I sadly do not get a lot of time to work on this due to college or having to do other important things around my house or with my friends. When I do have time for it, I work on it little by little making sure I am doing it correctly, since this is my first project I am being very lenient and trying not to be so hard on myself. I am bound to make mistakes and I accept that and I accept that it's ok. I know they wouldn't mind a messed up scarf from me as their first project was a blanket that is too small for anyone in the house but a part of me wants it to be the best it possibly can be. I think what matters in the end for my first project is that I tried the best I can and that I put all my love and passion into this scarf for them. 




I believe that's all I have to share for now, thank you for reading my entry blog about my new hobby! I hope you enjoyed it and I hope you are interested in crochet! I cannot wait to give this scarf to them and to see their reaction to it. I also cannot wait to work on other projects in the future and make more things for myself and my friend. I truly do love crochet, it blows me away what people can make with just  yarn, tools and hard work. Thank you again and if you are curious what color the scarf is going to be, here you go! Keep in mind this isn't showing the progress but just the color itself.
