Studied: Amigurumi Toys Course

This was actually my third attempt at learning crochet. The first two times I bought yarn, watched YouTube for a few days, couldn’t understand what my hands were doing and eventually put everything back in the cupboard. I genuinely thought maybe crochet just wasn’t for me. This time I started from the very beginning instead of jumping between videos. Somewhere around my first finished piece, I realised I wasn’t bad at crochet. I had just never learned it in an order that made sense.

I nearly didn’t join because I’m not what anyone would call a creative person. I can’t draw, I’ve never been into crafts, and everyone I saw crocheting online seemed naturally good at it. Then the course was basically: do this stitch, now repeat it, now add this. It felt less like needing talent and more like learning a sequence. My first bunny is slightly wonky and I love it because I know exactly how impossible it looked to me a few weeks earlier.

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

Two kids, a full-time job and honestly very little uninterrupted time. I stopped waiting for a ‘free evening’ because those apparently don’t exist in my house. 😂 I started doing twenty or thirty minutes after the kids slept, and sometimes I didn’t touch crochet for three days. It took me longer than I expected, but that stopped bothering me. The course was still there. My yarn was still there. I just continued where I left off.

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

I was very good at starting hobbies and very bad at finishing them. I already had half-used yarn from two previous crochet attempts. What kept me going here was making something small quite early instead of practising stitches endlessly. The first thing I made wasn’t perfect at all. But I finished it. That sounds small until you’ve spent years telling yourself you’re someone who never sticks with these things.

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

I am 58 and I almost convinced myself this was something I should have learned when I was younger. The first few days my fingers felt completely confused. I kept pausing, rewinding and doing the same movement again. Then one evening my hands just did the stitch without me thinking so hard about it. That was the moment I stopped asking whether I was too old and started wondering what I should make next.

Shabnam Bano

Patna

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

I understand English perfectly well, but crochet words like tension, yarn over and magic ring were somehow making an already new skill feel more complicated. Hindi mein samajhne ke baad suddenly I wasn’t translating the instruction in my head while trying to move my hands. I could just listen and do. I didn’t realise how much difference learning in the language you’re comfortable with could make.

Karishma Dutta

Guwahati

Studied: Amigurumi Toys Course

The first thing I made for someone else was a tiny keychain for my sister. It wasn’t expensive. It wasn’t perfectly shaped either. But when I gave it to her she looked at me and said, ‘Wait, YOU made this?’ I don’t know why that felt so much better than giving her something I had ordered online. Now half the things I make already have someone’s name attached to them before they’re finished.

Anjali Nair

Kochi

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

I used to save crochet bags, flowers and those little amigurumi animals on Instagram even though I had absolutely no idea how people made them. I remember finishing my first little piece and just staring at it because it had come from a ball of yarn in my own hands. Now when I see something cute, my first thought isn’t only ‘Where can I buy that?’ Sometimes it’s ‘Could I make that?’

Deepa Iyer

Coimbatore

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

Everything was going fine until my work suddenly started curling and I couldn’t understand why. Normally that is exactly where I would have closed the video and quietly abandoned another hobby. This time I asked for help, understood what I was doing with my tension and tried again. The important part wasn’t that I got stuck. It was that getting stuck didn’t mean I had to stop.

Jyoti Verma

Kanpur

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

I had one of those bags of yarn that makes you feel slightly guilty every time you open the cupboard. Bought everything with full enthusiasm. Watched tutorials for a week. Then it sat there for months. I joined mostly because I wanted to finally use what I’d already bought. The nicest part wasn’t buying more yarn. It was finally turning the old yarn into something.

Rachana Deshmukh

Nagpur

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

My problem wasn’t that I knew nothing. I knew chain, single crochet and a couple of other stitches from YouTube. But ask me to make something without a video playing beside me and I had no idea what to do next. That is the biggest difference for me now. I finally understand how the stitches become an actual project instead of just copying someone’s hands on a screen.

Sneha Patil

Nashik

Studied: Learn Crochet in 30 Days — Beginner Course

The beginning was slower than I personally needed because I had already learned a few stitches before joining, so I skipped parts of the basics. But once the projects started, the course made much more sense to me. I realised knowing four stitches and knowing how to actually make something with them are very different things. That’s the part I had been missing.

Nazneen Shaikh

Bhopal

Studied: Crochet Confidence Kit — Signature

I'll be honest, I hesitated because I'd never heard of them and I was paying up front. Access opened the second the payment went through, the kit had a tracking link the next day, and every question I've sent has been answered by a person. That's more than I get from companies I've bought from for years.

Preeti Malhotra

Chandigarh

Studied: Crochet Confidence Kit — Signature

Course is excellent, three stars is for the delivery — mine took nine days, not the three to eight it said, and the tracking sat unmoved for a while. Support answered the same day and were straight with me about it. I'd still buy again, I just wouldn't order it the week before someone's birthday.

Reshma Kadam

Kolhapur

Studied: Crochet Business Blueprint

I already knew how to crochet. What I did not know was what to make that people buy, what to charge, or how to get anyone to see it. The Instagram section is not generic advice — it is what to post for a craft product specifically, and my first reel from that template did 40,000 views.

Sadaf Rehman

Lucknow

Studied: Crochet Confidence Kit — Signature

Honestly the kit is why I started at all. I had been putting it off because I didn't know which hook size or which yarn to buy and the shop near me sells one type. It came in four days, everything labelled, and I didn't have to make a single decision before my first stitch.

Bhavya Kotecha

Surat

Studied: The Crochet Club

I joined on the free month fully intending to cancel on day twenty-nine. What stopped me was finding the cancel button on the first try, in my account, with no chat window and nobody offering me a discount to stay. A company that makes leaving easy is one I'll keep paying.

Nithya Balakrishnan

Madurai

Studied: Crochet Business Blueprint

I sell at two weekend markets and had never touched online. The pricing model here took my average order from ₹380 to ₹690 without losing customers, because I stopped pricing against the aunty at the next stall and started pricing against what it costs me.

Vaishnavi Rao

Bengaluru

Studied: The Crochet Club

The thing a subscription solves for me is the gap after you finish something and don't know what to make next. A new pattern lands, I look at it, I want it, I start. I have not had a single idle month since I joined, which was the whole problem before.

Lakshmi Subramanian

Chennai

Studied: The Crochet Club

I don't make everything that comes out — probably half of it isn't my style. But two patterns a year that I'd have paid for individually already covers it, and I've had more than two. Would like a few more home pieces and fewer wearables, personally.

Swati Chaudhary

Jodhpur

Studied: Crochet Business Blueprint

Nine months in. Month one I made ₹4,200 and thought I had wasted the fee. Month four was ₹21,000 and last month was ₹34,600, and the shape of that curve is exactly what the course said it would be. If I had judged it at month two I would have quit.

Aarti Menon

Thane

Studied: The Crochet Club

I paused for two months when work got heavy. Took one click, no email chain, no one trying to talk me out of it, and everything I'd already downloaded was still mine when I came back. That is genuinely rare and it is why I went annual afterwards.

Shruti Deshpande

Nagpur

Studied: The Crochet Club

The live session is the part I underrated. You watch someone make the mistake you're about to make and ask about it in real time. And if you miss it the replay is up the same night — I've watched most of them at eleven pm with the sound low.

Nandita Ghosh

Kolkata

Studied: The Crochet Club

The pattern I downloaded in my first month is still in my account after eight months, which is what I wanted to know before I put a card in. You keep what you took. That is not how most subscriptions work and it is why I recommend this one.
