Yes! I’ll take that scarf/ beanie/ blanket/ sweater/ weird stuffed animal. You make that slut top! Don’t pay urban outfitters or whatever 80 dollars! Spend a similar amount in supplies and time and do it yourself!
I dont do it, but I admire the person in my life that does. Granny squares rock

struggling for creative motivation until my bestie said he liked my knitting so now I’m deep into a scarf and actually use all my free time making it

they are so easy and accessible to make. just buy one hook and find some scrappy yarn. you can make them single or multi-coloured! you can make them as small or large as you like! eventually you will have enough to make a scarf or bag or top or blanket!
i taught my mum how to crochet granny squares during lockdown (she is the least crafty person ever) and she secretly made me a blanket out of them 🥹

can i crochet? somewhat. my capabilities do not extend past making scarfs.
do i still find it fun and soothing? yes!
don’t measure yourself against other people’s capabilities, you can still enjoy something even when you’re not an expert in the field!
it’s an outlet after a long day at work, and im happy with my singular talent. just don’t ask me to make you a teddy or a blanket or an item of clothing.
but if you want a scarf, i’m your girl!

Sometimes you can just exist. you don’t (hopefully) need 50 hustles. You don’t need to be a writer and musician and artist and podcaster and influencer and girlboss or whatever. you don’t even need to signal how cool or smart or attractive you are. I know it’s hard cause I think our society incentives (forces?) people to be “on” all the time, but it’s probably better for your own sake to just exist for yourself and your love ones and to adjust your expectations of what a successful or meaningful life is.
Sorry for being pedantic, just know a lot of friends and family my age or younger that seem to be struggling right now in all sorts of ways. Just know, regardless of what anyone says or even what you say or do, that you guys have inherent dignity and you are worth something
