Yesterday, while running errands, I was at Michaels looking around for soft foam or some kind of stuffing for another project. Couldn't find any, but totally ended up in the crochet section and bought me some learning tools!
I was told to just buy cheapie yarn and one hook to learn. So that's what I did. I also saw some really cute yarn that was on sale, so I decided to grab the pack. Now, time to learn! I searched a bunch of youtube videos for some good beginner tutorials. I pretty much learned the very basics; how to create a chain and how to create a double stitch. I get the whole idea, but boy do I need to work on the tension and the hooking (hooking.. pwahahahaha. I need to work on hooking! hehehe.. ok.. enough of that). But as you can see, my little block here is kinda crooked and not uniform. LOL! It's supposed to be a perfect rectangle, but somehow, it's got a bevelled edge when it should have been very sharp. I have no idea what I did!
Oh well, for now, I will just keep at it until my hands can get into a good rhythm. Oh, and maybe I shouldn't keep going because my hand did start to get a little cramped. It sort of sucks if you ask me. I could've gone on and on and on for hours and hours if my hands haven't cramped. Maybe I should work in breather breaks. Haha. I'll probably need to set a timer on my phone too because I get so into it that I don't realize how long it's been and then the hand starts to cramp. LOL.
