COFFEE AND CROCHET PODCAST - Help, I Have Lost My Crojo! | Posh Pooch Designs

 COFFEE AND CROCHET PODCAST - 

Help, I Have Lost My Crojo! 
With Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs

I received an email this week and all it

 said is, "Help I Have lost My Crojo"!

What does Crojo mean?

It means you have lost your motivation and desire

 to crochet. And as a Crocheter this can be devastating.

I have also found myself there as well. Sometimes it's

 when I finfish a large time consuming project and feel

 burned out. So you are not a lone.

How To Get Your Crocjo Back

1. Take Break - I crochet everyday, and this is hard for me.

 But I make myself do it. Every Wednesday I try to spend

 the day with My Grandkids and not to crochet at all.

if I do pick up the hook and yarn, it in the evening after 

they have gone home.

2. Take a Break From Craft/ Crochet Social Media Sites -

No yarn shopping, or crochet pattern shopping. 

Connect with family and friends, and better yet, 

go spend time with people.

3. Change Your View - Meaning get our of you Crochet

 spot and go out side. Go for a walk, go shopping, but not for

 yarnie things. Go to coffee or lunch with family or friends.

I Like to go for a drive with my dogs to a park, and just walk

 around. People are around, but you still have your space.

4. Remove The Clutter - If your "Crochet Spot" feels

 Cluttered up with yarn or unfinished projects, it can be

 overwhelming. And That makes our love of yarn and Crochet,

 not love anymore. Give away unused or unwanted yarn and

 projects. Put up unfinished projects in a clear tub to work

 on latter. Just take a few minutes and clear the clutter, 

it will help clear your mind.

5. Re -Start Small -To get back to feeling like crocheting

 again. You need to ease back into it. Start with some small useful projects like coasters washcloths and pot holders. 

And if you are ready to start crocheting again,

 just yet, try a different craft like Cross stich, painting,

 gardening or sewing. or maybe something you have

 wanted to try, but haven't had the time.

"Have You Lost Your Crojo"?

Sometimes we get bored, frustrated, busy, 
a tragedy happens, or for whatever reason, 
we have lost our "Crojo".

 "We Lose Our Will or Desire To Crochet."

How can we get it back?

"Don't let People change the
loving and caring person you are.
Don't let others, their words or actions
 get you down.
You do You, the best you know how!"

at This LINK

Here are a Few Tips To Help You Get It back:

1. YARN! - Got into your favorite place to purchase 
yarn, you don't have to buy any, just look, touch 
and squeeze, smell.  I Love just looking down the
 rows and seeing all the  beautiful colors. 

2. Your Crochet Spot - Go to Your happy place, 
 your comfort zone, take a favorite drink,
 like coffee, a few yarn magazines or look through
 Ravelry or Pinterst at all the projects, 
not the Patterns, the projects. 
Maybe something will inspire you to try 
something new.

3. Think of Others - Look Through your stash of 
yarn, and think of someone or a charity you would
 like to make something for donate. I think sometimes
 just getting our thoughts on others can really 
lift our spirits.

4. Donate - Also, While looking through your 
yarn stash, you can donate unused yarn to others. 
Donate to school programs teaching kids to
 crochet, or donate to nursing homes, and 
organizations, or to a friend who may not have the
 money for some new yarn.

We Go through " Lost My Crojo" moments, 
But let's not stay there!
