That feeling of accomplishment at the end of a project is so true❤

Luckily after over 30 yrs of crocheting, I've never gotten one callus and according to certain crocheters I hold my hook the wrong way 😊...

They don’t tell you the amount of times you ‘frog’ your crochet project when you are beginning

i enjoyed your video!
i finished my first big crochet project yesterday… a long sleeved top and it turned out beautiful (far better than i thought), the torso is fitted and the sleeves aren’t which wasn’t the plan but it looks great!
i started working on granny squares and the tension thing is a battle but i can’t wait to finish this one too and move on to more.
thanks for the tips and encouragement! i loved your calm voice.

The mysterious tension of my past self was such a shock and a dismay. Especially since I thought I finally had my tension somewhat regulated.

Somehow I found your video at the exact moment I needed it. Thanks.

Yarn thickness; took me a long time to understand what a 4 ply n a 4 wt were. Not the same, 🤯. Four ply can be thick or thin of each strand. Four wieght is consistant, well; within reason anyways. N then there is a difference with size 3 thread yarn n a size 10 thread aka Aunt Lydia's vrs size two wieght yarn. Its best to get a keychain gauge for wraps per inch. It helps alot.
