This was mine. A random poppy kit that I think was by Dimensions? I think?

It was 2015 and I'd been meaning to try cross stitch for ages but given my existing yarn collection at the time I couldn't really afford to jump into a whole new hobby. Hence this kit as a birthday gift, and that was that! Hooray for the enablers in our lives, eh?

Also still have the first random sample rectangle I ever knitted, and my first crochet attempt of a very wonky flower 😄

Nice! I still wear my HONK tshirt proudly, don't care if it's a bit outdated now lol.

Are you in the crochet community too? I'm sure people there would love to see your geometry-defying experiments 😆 !crochet@lemmy.ca (Lemmy / Kbin)

Now I am :D Perhaps once I'll have some more peace and time to sit to it, I'll learn more (I really, really want to make amigurumi), but so far I'm just making Pythagoras spirit very confused with whatever comes out of my hands
