I started crochet around 7 years ago.

My girlfriend used to crochet bears for her kids. It looked like such a fun way to make a gift so I started watching YouTube videos on how to crochet. Still can't make a bear but I am great at blankets haha

I find it surprisingly easy to follow complex patterns. Makes it easy to stay interested when each row is changing.

I would love to learn how to do a tapestry. I don't remember what the stitch is called but I saw some posts on Reddit where people made these beautiful portraits with yarn.
