mouse my sister gave me a blanket crochet kit, a hoop scarf knitting kit, and then i got too excited and bought myself some of those heavily advertised “woobles” kits that make little crochet amigurumi kits: an axolotl, a cat, and an owl! possibly a case of over investing before i have done enough to get started but oh well…

Crochet

I find it easier than knitting for some reason, but if knitting is your bag, then go with that. I just love turning my brain off and crocheting while I watch tv or listen to a podcast!!!! If you have the problem that I do where you need to have something to do w your hands while you sit still (lol) (needing to be productive while relaxing) (aka ADHD) this is great. And bonus you get a new sweater or hat or blanket when you’re done!

knitting in public

It feels very vulnerable because I’m very new to—and therefore not very good at—knitting, but it’s such a soothing, meditative craft that I feel like you should be able to do at a cafe without attracting too many stares.
