Then Your Half-assed Unfinished Project Is Good Enough To Whatever You Want Or Don't Want To Do With It - Tumblr Posts

It's a lovely advice also when you plan to return to the hobby. I don't show off on tumblr too much, but I crochet quite a bit, I came up with some simple designs, can do plushies and what not. But When I picked it up, I failed at crocheting rectangle. It was supposed to be blanket for my teddy bear. It turned into messed up trapezoid that I tried to fix so it became weirder trapezoid that folded and wasn't even big enough to be whole plushie blanket. It barely covers legs. It still started, let me practice basic stitches and later I learned what I messed up and could grow with it.

But even if I didn't, even if it ended up as an only crocheted piece I would ever make, it would still be great becuase it was another experiment another little creation in this world. Another physical manifestation of emotions that creative mind and clumsy fingers released to the world. Another memory of this time of your life you'll return to, whenever you'll see it, and maybe this period will be nostalgic or maybe you'll look back and think "Hell yeah, I survived that shit" Maybe you'll be happy with where you are now. Maybe with where you were then. It doesn't matter. It's precious. And every unfinished project you may have is precious too

When you're speaking you don't always finish each sentence. Sometimes you'll stop in the middle and decide you don't have to say it or don't know how or know how but it just isn't the way. Why should things spoken by your hands abide to different rules?

Draw badly. Write nonsensically. Embroider messily. Burn what you bake and cook. Get paint everywhere. Read half a book. Lose your mind for a bit. Plant things. Have faith in the process. Abandon 70 wood-carving projects. Get a kit and do some of it and never return to it. Get comfortable with sucking and losing motivation. Continue to create with reckless abandon.
