Creating handmade items with knitting, crochet, and macrame is a rewarding, relaxing and mindful hobby. Some even choose to turn their passion into a business and sell their creations.
Knitting, crochet, and other crafts are right on trend now, with a particular surge in popularity during the pandemic. Even famous celebrities have taken an interest in these wholesome pastimes. Tom Daley was famously spotted knitting in between events at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, and celebrity Nicholas Hoult reportedly knits for 10 hours straight.
Lady gifts baby crochet beanie
A lady named Meegan recently went viral online when a video of her was posted following her journey on a short flight.
During this flight, 5-month-old baby Romey became utterly transfixed by Meegan who was crocheting next to her, apparently being unable to take her curious eyes off the lady crafter.
Noticing the adorable baby’s interest, Meegan decided to quickly crochet Romey a beanie hat and gifted it to her on landing. Romey’s parents were absolutely thrilled by the kindness and the sentiment behind her gift.
Macrame
For those looking to try their hand at a new craft, a macrame kit is a perfect way for beginners to start. Macrame is the art of crafting items from various loops and knots. The results are beautiful, hand-made creations, ranging from homewares and toys to accessories.
A macrame kit, which can be obtained from a variety of online specialist sites, such as Wool Couture, comes with everything you need to complete a project, including instructions, a manual, macrame rope, a darning needle and any extra accessories required.
Crafting items with yarn is a highly addictive pastime. With it comes concentration, relaxation, and the satisfaction of being able to create beautiful projects relatively quickly.
