Crocheted Blue and White Striped Newbie Blanket

This blue and white striped blanket was one of my first crochet projects. After seeing others creations online, I decided to pick up crocheting in summer of 2022. With the help of some YouTube videos, it took about a week to learn the basic stitches. It ended up taking longer to complete because I took a break during summer, and there were times when I had to wait for yarn. In total, it took about one year to finish, breaks not included. I could have probably used a little larger hook, but I didn't know it at the time.

  • Worsted yarn: Lauri by Kehrä (75% wool, 25% polyester)
  • Hook size: 5,5 mm
  • Measure: 150 cm x 210 cm (59" x 79")
  • Worked on: 2022-Nov-01 - 2024-Feb-24 (breaks included)

Crocheted Deep Sea Infinity Scarf

This deep sea infinity scarf was crocheted using two, or three skeins of worsted Sport yarn by Falkgarn. 70% wool, 25% polyester. I thought this variegated yarn was mostly used when knitting socks, but it worked for this, too. I completed it on December 22, 2023.

Crocheted Ocean Blue Beanie and Scarf

I used this scarf as a project to practice crocheting straight edges. Afterwards, I realized that an 8 mm, or 9 mm hook could have been used. No tassels were added since it's so long. Later on, I crochet a matching beanie.

Crocheted Blue and Yellow Hats

The yellow one was my first try at crocheting a beanie. It got a little too large, but was good for practicing. The blue which I made next had a better size. The yellow beanie was finished on September 21, 2022, and the blue on 23 October, 2022.
