I struggled for so long with starting a magic circle. I am so excited now to say that about 96% of the time I nail it! it makes me so happy because I can make stuff I really want to make and not have to search for patterns that have a chain start.
It makes me smile every time I nail one! Makes me feel like a real crocheter!!

I was crocheting so wrong!
I was only slip knotting in the back loop only! It wasn’t until I sat down with someone that it made sense!

a skill that recently clicked for me was embroidering details onto amigurumi. I’ve just been trying to imitate others embroidered mouths with random lines, but I finally watched a tutorial on how to do it, and it clicked!
that’s kinda embarrassing considering how long I’ve been crocheting

bobble stitches! it took me forever to understand they are just a bunch of uncompleted double crochets in the same hole that you then connect with one loop. (this is a really bad explanation please search up a tutorial if you are confused)
