What’s in My Crochet Tote

I crochet this tote bag a couple months ago and I’ve been obsessed with it since! I had recently bought a new tote and I switched back to the one I made bc I just love it so much & I feel it’s more sturdy & spacious !

My current read: Half blood by Jennifer L. Armentrout. I don’t have a rating yet as I just currently started reading it, but so far I’m a bit intrigued.

Gaming journal: I use a gaming journal bc I have a few games I switch between often such as Stardew Valley, Spiritfarer, Disney Dreamlight Valley, and Sims. I be needing to know what I was doing/what my plan was once I return to those games so to keep up with it I have a journal. I also use it for tips and tricks for certain games so I don’t always have to look it up online, or go through the many YouTube videos to find the tip/trick I’m looking for.

I learned to crochet when I was in middle school by a friend of mine. The same day I learned I fell in love, told my mom and she bought me an entire crochet kit including books to learn how to make different things. Ever since, I’d crochet off and on due to all of the moving and things I had going on, but recently I’ve started doing it more often and these items in my tote, including the tote, are a few items I’ve created off the dome, no pattern.

... Read moreCrocheting is more than a hobby; it's an art form that combines creativity and practicality. In this piece, I delve into my passion for crochet, starting from when I learned it in middle school. It began with a friend's guidance and blossomed with my mom's support when she gifted me a crochet kit. The joy of crafting each item has remained a constant, especially now as I create unique pieces without patterns. My latest project, a tote bag, perfectly illustrates my growth in this craft. I've filled my tote with essentials, including a candy pouch, a mini journal, and a book light. These items not only keep me organized but also reflect my daily life. For example, the gaming journal is vital for tracking my adventures in games like Stardew Valley and Sims. Its purpose is to ensure I remember my strategies and goals, making it easier to dive back into my virtual worlds. Additionally, my current read, 'Half Blood' by Jennifer L. Armentrout, has been a delightful companion. It showcases how crafting and reading intersect in my life, both providing an avenue for relaxation and inspiration. The combination of crochet with various life aspects showcases the versatility of crochet in modern lifestyles. As I continue to explore new projects, I hope to inspire others to embrace their creativity and share their journeys.
