I have been thinking about how often knitting and crochet projects stall and how much quiet guilt we attach to that. A project gets put down for a day.Then a week.Then it lives in a bag while we tell ourselves we will come back to it soon. In my experience, projects do not stall because of skill or motivation. They usually stall because life changes, energy dips, or the project asks for more decisions than we have space for. A few things that genuinely help when something feels stuck. Try reducing the project to just five minutes of stitches. No finishing, no fixing, just five minutes. Change the context rather than the project. A different room, chair, or time of day can make a surprising difference. And ask one honest question. What do I need from this project right now. Enjoyment, learning, or something easy to hold. I am curious, when a project stalls for you, what usually helps you move forward or let it rest without guilt?

Christmas is just around the corner, I have a thousand things to do, and yet I spend every free minute just Do-ewe-yoking. This isn’t going to work like this…. Greatings from Hungary

Newbie to this group. Thanks for accepting me. Found this shirt and thought would like to share with all of you. Have a happy winter knitting/crocheting to one and all.

To all creators in this craft community, remember this: failure is not the opposite of success—it’s part of it. Every crooked stitch, every splintered wood, every cracked mold tells a story of growth. You don’t fail when something doesn’t work out you fail only when you stop creating. Success isn’t perfection it’s persistence. It’s trying one more time with better hands, sharper eyes, and a stronger heart. So whether you're just starting or have been crafting for years, wear your mistakes proudly. They're proof that you dared to make something. Keep showing up. Keep creating. Your breakthrough is built on your setback

I fall in love with Yoke meditation series #4. I know that it is not probably the best project for the first color work especially if I cannot wear wool (it is too warm for me) and I decided to go with combination of cotton for MC and linen + cashemere for CC. I use cashmere to avoid visibility of MC when it comes behind CC. I like the result so far even if it is not perfect.
