Hello my fellow crocheters,
What a crazy time it is in our world with the emergence of this novel Coronavirus.
With leaders all over the world asking (or mandating) citizens to stay at home, practice social distancing, abide by shelter-in-place policies, or even go on lock down to prevent the spread of COVID-19, a lot of us find ourselves now having to adjust to a new "normal" in life. I have no idea how long this will go on for, nor do I know what other things the future brings. It is unsettling, to say the least!
However, in the attempt to bring some light back into our lives, I've decided to put together a roundup of projects that can spark joy! They are all beginner-friendly crochet patterns that you can get for free on my blog. For those of you who are home-bound, crocheting can be a great way to relieve some stress and bring a sense of calmness back into your system!
So, let's jump into it! All you need to do is click on the pattern name to navigate to the pattern page with the written instructions (and video tutorial, if available)!
Home & Decor
Since a lot of us are now spending 99.9% of our time at home, why not spruce up your living space a bit with some of these decorative projects that are also functional, whether it's for organization, storage, or other uses!
For Yourself or Others
Self care is super important during a stressful and anxiety-upping time like this! Give yourself (or someone you know) the gift of self care or love with these thoughtful, handmade crochet gifts.
