Thank you, Nikki! :)
I printed out the instructions for the shawl I'm planning to crochet yesterday, so hopefully I'll get started on that soon now :)
Wasn't so motivated to start on that before while I still had this easier project to work on when I was in crocheting mood.

Nice. 
Do you sell any of the things that you make?

Nah, setting up some sort of shop and marketing it would be way too much work considering how little time I have for crafting and how few things I make.
I just do stuff for myself or as gifts.
If somebody stumbles upon my stuff here and wants me to make them something I'm sure we could work something out, but that seems unlikely :D I don't really post my stuff anywhere else where more people would see.

Ah well, just having it as a hobby is more fun anyway.

I agree there. Trying to sell my stuff became more of a hassle than I wanted. I sold a few things but not enough to justify the time. and in the end I was making items that I thought would sell, not items I actually wanted, so now I have useless stuff in a drawer.

Oh my god, genuinely like 30 or more items Mostly they're decorative wall hoops with various designs. I have some jewellery and clothing as well but I'm hoping to sell those still. I was going to try a couple of new platforms because Etsy just didn't work for me, I don't have the time to put into running it. When you only get a handful of views a week because you can't put in the promotion, it's no wonder really that not much sells
I'm starting to think that the people I know around me might be getting a lot of wall hoops for their Christmas and birthdays XD

Would love to see pics of the wall hoops. Sounds like great gift ideas!

There are some still up on my Etsy: link
the others are only like 15 pages down on my Instagram haha, I let the listings run out because it was costing me too much to keep the shop running.

It's probably not that easy to figure out what actually sells, right? I wouldn't want to try :D
Making them gifts to people you know sounds like a good idea :)
