I have a confession... I am 110% one of “those people” who will look at a product someone else makes and think to myself “I can totally make that”. Do I actually end up making it? 9 times out of 10, no.
I have to think this “I can do it” attitude stems from 50% frugality and 50% creative competitiveness with myself. I’m always down to learn a new creative skill (and save some money 🙈). I’ve tried my hand at crochet twice before. Once 5 years ago, wanting to make a blanket for my soon to be niece (I dream big) and a couple summers ago at the cottage. Both failed attempts followed by a ‘Nope. Can’t do it.’ attitude.
But when Melissa from @josiahandco came out with her DIY kits and ‘If I can do it, you can do it’ motto — I thought again, maybe I can. I have a small human I can maybe make these for.
So after a lot of quality time with YouTube and several hours of crocheting and ripping out (repeat 3-4 times)... here we are!
There’s definitely a few wrong rounds in there... but they look symmetrical in size and all around adorable. So I’m keeping them how they are! #PROUD
Are you a ‘I can totally make that’ type or a ‘best leave it to the pros’ kind? •
