This took me 600+ hours

2025/1/4 Edited to

... Read moreCreating art is often a labor of love that requires immense dedication and skill. In this article, we delve into the process of an artist's journey that spanned more than 600 hours. It's about more than just time; it's about passion, perseverance, and the unique stories that each piece of artwork tells. Artists often spend countless hours perfecting their craft, experimenting with techniques, and exploring different themes. This project showcases the essence of the artist’s spirit, reflecting both cultural nuances and personal experiences that resonate with the #artist and #wastedjuicewld communities. Furthermore, engaging with vibrant tags like #colorful and #artworkoflemon8 invites readers to explore the intersection of art and community, encouraging new artists and art enthusiasts to connect and share their own journeys. By creating an engaging environment for discussions around representation and creativity, we honor the stories of #womenofcolor artists and inspire others to embark on their own artistic journeys. Discovering the time investment behind creating meaningful work can help nurture respect and understanding for various artistic expressions across communities.

I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out 🧶🌼 This cardigan took me about **40 hours** to complete (yes… forty😅 but to be fair i was using a 3mm hook with a weight 1 yarn) I used Eddie Bauer Adventurer Cotton in the dreamiest butter yellow. The yarn has such a nice drape—perfect for transition

This cardigan took me over 40 hours to make
I took this apart so many times to try and make it semetrical and finally I’m done with this cardigan. Well I need to weave in all ends, block it, and still deciding on pockets. #crotchet cardigan #crochet #crotchetfashion

Guess how many hours this page took me? 🤔
Were you right? 🫣 Disclaimer: I am not fast, but I also don't know why this took way longer than I expected. 😅 Maybe it was because I combined 2 techniques? 🤷🏻‍♀️ This was over back-to-back days, and, yes, it felt like my hand was going to fall off. 🫠 Coloring Page by: @thecoolkitschclub
