Good morning, good Monday, good start, friends and friends of the needles! I hope your beginning is going well and with creativity. I come to tell you an experience with this knitting, which surprised me and also cost me a little.

On the one hand, I wanted to share with you the tutorial and how to do it. My explanation of how I did it and my tips on how to do it. Although there will be no lack of personal details, I preferred not to do it this way. Taking pictures of each part of the process is difficult and I see no reason to make an effort to do it, when the reality is that you can find everything, as I did, in .
I overlook the language issue, and I appreciate if you write below the rounds and stitches to use. Although I start the new pattern and copy the lines so I don't have to watch the video every time I want to do it, I preferred to write down the first part, and the color changes. Then I focused on learning the things I didn't know how to do.
I had many doubts and mixed emotions while I was making it. First I felt trapped to achieve it (and start it) since I had not started to create a new object for a long time, and I was even going through a block in crochet. I wanted to overcome this fear and feeling of being productive or creative.
Although everything in knitting is a bit of copying, testing, change, error, I was defeated in this aspect, rickety or unmotivated. Finding a new project that gives me the intention of making it became a triumph in itself.
While I am always seeing projects and free patterns to follow, I didn't really feel that any of them were projects that I loved. I had been finishing old, or half done projects and this kitty had all the love and tenderness from me. It awakened my desire to make several, to be able to give some as gifts, to make different colors and maybe different ears to make different animals. Maybe a brown one with bear ears?
I loved the possibility of choosing the colors that the kitten would wear, in the video you will see that they use a yellow orange, and I chose to make mine with ecru and gray. Also, finishing the part that would be the bag was an achievement by itself, I had never done anything like this before and achieving it was a discovery.
The part I liked the least was to glue the eyes, the mouth and the whiskers. But I understand that if I had sewn them, the seams would be inside and this is not an amigurumi! haha I loved being able to try with different materials, even those that are not friendly, and I don't enjoy so much. The end result is totally worth accepting to use materials that I don't like so much.
On the other hand, the difficulties that appeared... What can I tell you? All projects that teach us something bring difficulties and overcoming them is where we learn and overcome them. For example, I thought I had finished the ears when the video said “make two” and then I realized that they would have a cover on the back with the other color and I loved how it would look, although when sewing them to the “body” I felt they looked weird.
Also, the legs had a bit of stuffing, but I wasn't interested in doing this either, so I dared to sew it directly to the chains that make the bra and closure of the bag.
I don't know exactly what I'll use it for, maybe it's good for carrying candy in this coughing season, or maybe keys, hair tie devices, any makeup? If you have any ideas, or share with me what you would use it for, I would be enormously grateful.
I send you a huge hug, I thank you for reading my story, and if you have gone through blocks with knitting, or maybe you have any ideas to share, as always, I read you in comments.
Thanks for reading me, Kiki✨
