After i learnt how to crochet, the first thing i wanted to do was show off my new found hobby and the best way i found was to make a small crochet gift for my mum. (my first knit project was for her too)
I say small because as a new person to crochet, spending a lot of time on a crochet project can be overwhelming because you are not fast at the craft yet as you are still new so it is best to focus on the small crochet projects. Even as an experienced crocheter, if you are making crochet gifts for a few people then you want them to be time friendly!!!
Remember, you can take crochet course on Udemy or Skillshare which is subscription based. You can either pay for an entire year or per month. Good thing is, if you use my link to sign up, you get a month of free learning not just my classes but all classes on SkillShare!
