I want to make a scarf like Mikasa wears in the anime AOT! :blush:
I have the yarn from Christmas, so I just need to get started. I like doing amigurumi a lot more, so I’m hoping I have the stamina for a nice thick scarf! :zany_face:

Other things I want to make:
-my first make/plushie in Bernat blanket yarn!
-a bandana/hair wrap

Honestly, as long as I can get myself back into crocheting and have motivation to crochet, I’m happy. But if there are any projects I would love to do once I get said motivation, I would like to crochet a giant amigurumi something. I’m thinking of doing a goose, an octopus, a dragon (really wanna do this one), or a peacock mantis shrimp, which I would have to write my own pattern for. I would also like to finish my granny square blanket that I started about a year ago when I started crocheting, crochet a cardigan and just more wearables in general, and actually start my idea for a Fiber Artist Charity Club in my community. I do want to try harder stitches that my brain says, “Run away, that’s scary, ew!” And as a last thing, I need to retry knitting.

Sorry that was long.

Relearn to knit, make a wearable, get a more consistent tension, finish the super realistic octopus I stated as my second project (lol I was in over my head with that)

Learn tapestry (or just generally crochet with several colours).

Crochet a cat (or 10 in different models).

Learn more stitches (and to make a circular crochet staying flat :joy:).

I also want to make decorations for next Christmas! :blush::christmas_tree:

I want to make at least 3 wearables! At least a cardigan/sweater at least. And hopefully make one without a pattern- and implement a cool stitch into it!

Also actually publish more patterns. I freehand a lot of stuff but either don’t write it down, or do a completely wacky technique that makes sense to me but I wouldn’t know how to write down and so I just don’t.

They’re my favorite animal! I could rant for hours about them. I’ve been wanting to make one ever since I started crocheting.
