    I conquered the Cheeky Magic circle

    I just wanna say that I am very proud of myself for this learning project post. As some of you may know in my last blog I was having some trouble crocheting my magic circle. I finally had achieved creating the magic circle but didn’t know how to crochet any further. For this post, I found a YouTube video that explained How to Increase on the Magic Circle for beginners by Libby. In this video, she explains the stitch pattern that typically is used to increase on the magic circle. She explains that with every round of stitches, the stitch count is going to increase by 6, in order to make…

    A Cheeky Magic Circle

    So I will just say this learning post was a sort of a fail. This week I tried to create a magic circle using inspiration from TikTok. I tried to go the TikTok route because I thought the magic circle was going to a quick and easy skill that I would master easily. I thought wrong. It seems like no matter what video I go on I can’t do this magic circle. I have learnt from a variety of different TikTok’s the proper way to get it started, but every time I try to move past the first step and stitch onto the circle, it doesn’t want to not have…

Which at times is exciting, but can be also annoying. A certain TikTok video did spark some excitement because I rushed to my yarn to try it. In my previous blog I had explained how I had learned how to do a single stitch crochet, this is still true although I thought I would spice it up. I learnt that there a variety of different variations of single stitch crochets and that it doesn’t always have to look one way. In the…

    One Stitch at a time!

    The online source that I used for my learning project this week was GoodKnitKisses youtube video. My first impression of this youtube video that it was very inviting and inticing. She begins the video with a jingle to attract your attention followed by a whole bunch of pictures of her knitting. I like that the video gave an outline of what the watcher was going to be learning throughout the video and mentioned that there was going to be various tips and tricks to accompany the video alongside. While watching the video I noticed the various timestamps on the video, this made it easier to navigate if I wanted to…

    Introducing my Learning Project

    Hey everyone! I thought I would share with you what I am going to be doing for learning project. This was a pretty difficult decision for me because I am very indecisive person and I love to try new things, which as a combination made it difficult to choose. After a couple conversations with my loved ones I have chose to learn how to crochet. My interest for crocheting actually dates back to when I was a young child and bonding with my grandma over crocheting and quilting. My grandma has a great passion for designing and creating crafts. A distinct memory I have is her bringing her large tub…
