Like a lot of others, Iā€™ve been crocheting since i was ~11, my Grandma taught me the basics and I went on YouTube for the rest. Iā€™ve been crocheting for around 6ish years now. Iā€™m happy i kept up with it and am grateful for my Grandma as Iā€™ve made cute plushes and clothes and have greatly progressed through the years : )

I was 13 when I started, I had a bunch of left over yarn from horse shows and crochet hooks from my grandmother. I am almost 16 so almost 3 years now. My first project ever was an amigurumi bee.

I first learned some crochet (chaining and sc in BLO) in the very early 90s (probably 92ish) from my grandmaā€¦ Didnā€™t do too much with it until about 98 or so when I helped my other grandma put ā€œlacyā€ beaded edgings on baby socks for my cousinā€¦ Then again did nothing until 2005-8 when I made several sc in BLO scarves off and onā€¦ Finally in 2011 I decided to relearn/learn more, using books and blogs (couldnā€™t get it with YouTube) and havenā€™t stopped since! Then I taught myself to knit in 2013 (almost solely using YouTube, as that I couldnā€™t get it with reading :woman_shrugging:t3:), and havenā€™t stopped with that either!

Im currently 14 and only recently started around late December. Although it took me HOURS just to understand how to do the basics, Iā€™m finally getting the hang of it and itā€™s so fun! I honestly wish I took the initiative to start sooner! Nevertheless, Im very proud to say that my first proper piece of work (despite lookingā€¦ interesting due to my skill) was completed with the help of this app and I look forward to using it to create many more in the future!
