Hi there! I’m so excited to welcome you to my little space on the internet. This blog is where ill be sharing my love for crochet, knitting and all things yarn.
I first picked up a hook around 2019. At that time, I had just quit university at Flinders University in Adelaide and moved back to my hometown with my parents. It’s a long and stressful story, but I’ll share that later. During that period, I was feeling overwhelmed and wanted my mind to be quiet. I started going to thrift stores to buy second-hand clothes and to sew. Oh, right—I do have a background in sewing. In high school, during Year 10 to Year 12, I took fashion, sewing, and art classes, which sparked my interest in crafty pursuits.
One day, I found a ball of yarn. Actually, my mum found it first and suggested I try using it, hoping I could learn. I agreed and told her I’d teach her. However, she has a problem with her hand—sometimes it gets numb and stiff, which makes sewing painful for her. So, I watched a few video tutorials and read some blogs online. My very first project was a big pink scarf. Why so big? Well, it took me at least three months to finish, and I had hoped to make a blanket out of it. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen, so now I have a very long pink scarf!
After that, I made a floor mat—an idea that came at the right time because my dog used it as her bed. Sadly, I lost her later, which deeply affected me. I paused my crocheting for about two years. I was depressed and didn’t know what to do with myself. During that time, I kept busy working most of the day and spending time at the gym afterward.
I still crochet some items from time to time. These include bras and bralettes. Honestly, I don’t enjoy it as much anymore. It doesn’t feel like it’s for me. Fast forward to 2025, and I am now a mother to my beautiful son, who is almost two years old. I’m so happy to be back to doing what I love. I’ve even made him a bonnet and a cardigan. Yes, it takes longer now, and he sometimes plays with the yarn, but that’s okay. Now, I crochet not because I’m stressed, but because I’m creating something I love for someone I love.
