Let’s get the yarn ball rolling!

How long have you been a hooker?

What got you interested in the craft?

What are you really good at?

What is one thing you’d like to learn?

    Sadly the only thing I can really recommend for tension in crochet is “practise”. Which I know is not a satisfying answer. Generally among the people I’ve taught to do it though, it seems like when you feel like you’re holding the yarn loosely enough already as a beginner you should loosen up even more. If it feels like everything is “too loose”, that’s probably about right!

    Also just wanted to mention we have a brand new cross stitch community ([email protected]) now too that needs some content, and I for one would love to see what you’ve been stitching :D

      Yeah fair enough.

      Awesome to see there’s a cross stitch community! Tbh I just got started and the first pattern I got is kind of mediocre. I might post the next thing I do though!
