Crocheting

One of activities that I mentioned in my new CAS plan was learning to crochet. This is a very babushka style activity but I thought it'd be really cool to know at least the basics of it!

To pursue that activity I have started by watching various videos of Youtube and researching different styles and advice for beginners. After this I have prepared the yarn and the hook and got straight into it. 




The pictures illustrate my practicing crochet and a little final project in a form of an imaginary monster. I genuinely enjoyed learning to crochet because it was something that I have never done before and didnt think I would do either. In addition, there were several CAS outcomes met:

- increasing awareness of strengths and weaknesses
- undertaking new challenges 
- developing new skills 

Also, if you are reading this post and thinking this could be an activity for you, I strongly recommend this video to watch:
