I hope this title caught your attention and you won't be too disappointed reading what this post is about!
Those of you who follow me via Instagram or Facebook already know about my newest hobby:
I started crocheting about 2 weeks ago! Yay!

I have to admit: when I started, it was pretty frustrating. Check this out:
Day 1: DISASTROUS!!! (aka: cat bikinis, how Michael called it)
Day 2: It finally turned out right! A SQUARE! I've never been prouder of a square.
So this is how my career started. I ordered the set below on Amazon, and I had to be very patient.
Corcheting ain't easy. Learned it the hard way.

I didn't even use the yarn that came with the box, cause I didn't want to waste it! I've tried, and tried,
and tried, and finally´, after a couple of hours, I finished my first cupcake. Not perfect, but kind of cute.
Oh and I had a little fun dressing up Coco with some of the cupcake parts as well. Mean mama I am.

But last night I finished my first real masterpiece!
As I would call it in German: Frau Schwarzwälder Kirsch!
English version: Mrs. Black Forest Cake!
You might think I'm crazy, I know. You might be right. But I am a little proud of the progress I made in that short amount of time.
Do you crochet? Any advice? I will work on some more of those cute little Amigurimi food things, but sure will start crocheting something useful as well. Like a blanket. Or beanies.
Have a lovely Thursday!
