Too Much

School takes too much time. I have no more time to crochet! Plus I've kinda hit a rock and a hard place with crocheting, I can't find anymore good, basic videos that I can learn from so if anyone has any suggestions they would be GREATLY appreciated!

This is one of the craziest times of the year, my AP classes are really kicking in, it's the middle of rehearsal season for my school's fall play, Show choir auditions are tomorrow and I'm captain, PLUS smaller things such as honor society, school ambassadors, our morning video broadcast anchor AND I have a wonderful Internship with YFU.
This is what I keep telling myself, so to all of you out there who need inspiration, whisper this to yourself during the dark moments.

More Crocheting!

I made my first amigurimi! It's quite small and simple but I still think it would be considered an amigurumi! I also made a crocheted ball just for practice although it could have turned out a bit more circular.

I made the cherry by following a Youtube video and I made the ball free-hand to test if I had actually learned what the Youtube video taught me!

Any feedback, tips, advice, etc. is greatly appreciated!

First Crochet!

Finally I started to learn how to crochet, off of Youtube. =]

It's called a Granny Square and the holes are supposed to be there, of course it's supposed to be an actual square but it didn't quite turn out that way.

I'm quite proud of it for my first time though!

Hopefully I can work up to amigurimi sometime!
