Okay, as you can see I’m getting better since those stitch mistakes on the bottom of the K and the wonky tension in the bottom. Trying to decide if I want to finish this for practice or start again now that I’ve got a better handle on tapestry crochet - ThreadSky

Honestly really proud of myself for my very first attempt!

You might try the bobbin method to adjust your tension. Basically you add your yarn to something like a clothes pin or piece of cardboard instead of the larger skeins. There are fancy things made for it if you like it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rElP6LSQFgU

Learning to make handcraft stuff is so very satisfying and therapeutic! (I say this as a beginning knitter in my 50s)

Totally! I’m in my 40s and just picked up crochet and am so glad to have something to do with my hands that doesn’t involve my phone

RIGHT? It really helps me concentrate in online meetings (that I'm not leading), to keep me from wandering off into other windows or onto my phone.
