Crochet Frustrations
Hello, dear read.cash friends, kamusta again?
Have you had something that you loved so much and then one day you lost interest in it?
Today, a memory in my Facebook account popped up and I was like oh, Nagawa ko pala to noong araw?

The caption says "sakto gyud ni sa 1.3 nestogen" what I meant is that I will be able to buy 1.3 kilograms of formula milk for my son with those projects being done above.
During this time, I was so into crochet that I made it as a sideline; that was before I met read.cash and noise.cash. I was even getting also little time for sleep just to finish projects and be able to make money from them. My son was just months old during this time and since getting a nanny is very hard because I worry if they would ever take good care of our child, I asked my husband to stop his work and nanny our kids. We may be losing some income but at least we don't need to pay someone and we are confident about our kid's safety.
My husband was encouraging me to make more hats because he will be selling them and so I did. He wore the hats hat I made and advertised it to his friends and even to the sales ladies at a pharmacy where he buys milk for our youngest child.
One ordered a hat and a bag, when the order came, her friends envied her new hat and bag, so they told my husband they want one too!
Too sad during these times, I was not able to take decent pictures of everything that I finished But I was glad I had the picture above and uploaded it.
I made some projects and advertised to sell them on my Facebook page but only a few buy them because they find them too pricey. I got discouraged and focused on blogging.
I still make projects but I was not as motivated as before because my shoulders sore easily sore when I crochet.
Now that my kids are into face-to-face classes, I found a need to make new hast for them but I fail every time I try. Look at the picture above: I had the same stitches as the first picture but it was not looking well and I am sure it won't be working well too.
I was not satisfied with my work so I ripped it all off. And the ripped wools look like black spaghetti over my office drawer.
I got frustrated with what I did so I set them aside and waited for the motivation to come, my idea re my inspiration but I just did not have it anymore, I wish it will come back to me. I tried forcing myself but nothing good happened, I was only stressing myself instead of enjoying teh thing that I loved.
I hope my mojo will come back soon.
Thank you for your time, Keep safe!
