Welcome to Hasty Tortoise Crochet
Hello! I’m so glad you’ve found my little corner of the digital space. There’s all too much yarn here. And cats… and kids’ noises in the background. But also wine and a little light jazz music to chill things out a bit.
Do you allow your mind to simply wander any more? Or do you reach for your phone to occupy your attention when empty space arises throughout the day?
What happens when you do let your mind wander? … It probably goes to all of the tasks you haven’t done yet, or prods at your latests worries. No wonder you reach for social media instead!
We live our lives like tortoises on overdrive. Our little legs dragging our heavy burdens around as quick as we can manage.
The problem is, it’s good for our attention to be occasionally freed from cyberspace and our endless modern-day worries. Our minds are meant to have “quiet-time” and, in today’s busy world, we need to cultivate space in our week to park our shells and take a break from the haste!
Hasty Tortoise Crochet was born of my own need to take more mental breaks. I tried mindfulness meditation, but my breath was never enough to hold my monkey mind at bay.
I found that, if I have a calm activity to occupy my hands, my mind will also follow suit. I discovered that crochet is the perfect way to tame my haste! I want to share this revelation with you!
Whether you’re already a seasoned crocheter, or you’re new and want to explore all the benefits crochet has to offer, I invite you to find a comfortable chair, turn off the distractions, ready your yarn and hook and take a deep breath.
Crochet is a fabulous art that perfectly merges beauty and utility. Explore crochet with me through my blog, or try my patterns in my Etsy Shop!
