Gertrude de Lama Pastel Haakpakket

I’m usually terrible at crafts, but the pastel yarn is so soft and the video tutorials kept me from getting lost—Gertrude’s little face came together in about two evenings.

The video tutorials are seriously the best part—I’ve never crocheted before and had Gertrude’s little legs done in one evening. The pastel yarn is so soft and the kit’s got everything, so I didn’t have to run out for anything.

I’m halfway through Gertrude and the pastel yarn is so soft it’s genuinely calming to work with, plus the pre-started loop made the first few stitches way less intimidating. The video tutorials played smoothly on my phone while I followed along, and I actually finished her head in one sitting.
