Goodbye Joann’s 🥲
With Joann’s going out a business, I thought I’d update about some things I’ve made recently!
The first picture’s blanket ended up being very large and soft. I absolutely love the texture and how light it is. It is also the first time I’ve made a whole blanket in 3 days!!
The second one is a light blue baby blanket. It was so much fun learning a few new stitches for this pattern. It was surprisingly easier than I thought it would be.
The last is less of a favorite for me. The pattern was pretty, but very time consuming and worked up much slower than I hoped for. The color of the yarn also seemed more yellow than at the start, but maybe that was from staring at it for so many hours 😂
I’m excited to keep crafting and see what else I can make. I’ve started into plushies… 😆
Where are you all getting your yarn now? I need a new place, so let me know!! 🥰🥰#crochet #yarnspirations
