If you just moved into an apartment or you want to personalize your space, crochet pieces are perfect for the job. These pieces in your home stand out, make a statement, and can sometimes show your quirky side.
Crochet is what you do when you need a break but still want to be productive; a productive hobby. Besides, why spend money buying it when you can make it? Even though it’ll be more expensive, it will be more rewarding. Crochet math.
Crochet is Cool, Not Old

It’s time to debunk the myth that crocheting is known as a granny’s hobby. Young people are now venturing into this as well. It has become an art form, a method of self-expression, for both the young and old. Because it is made of yarn 90% of the time, it adds style and warmth, making your place more comfortable and homey. Even if you’ve never held a crochet hook, these pieces would be easy to create. So, If you’re interested in cozying up your space, these 5 items will do the trick.
Weighted Blankets

Who needs a cuddle buddy when you have this heartwarming snuggle blanket? It adds color to your bedroom and protects you from the cold. As the name implies, weighted blankets are made with worsted yarn. A good tip when making a blanket is to downsize a little because yarn (acrylic) tends to stretch. I also suggest using granny squares to make visually appealing pieces. Don’t worry, granny squares are beginner-friendly.
Pillows/Plushies
They can be big or small and can come in almost any shape. A crochet pillow is a perfect way to add individuality to your living space. If you do not have access to stuffing to create a pillow from scratch, you can make a pillowcase instead for your favorite pillow. This way, you can explore patterns and designs, giving a fresh look to a mundane pillow.
Tapestry Wall/Hanging Decor
Although this is not the most beginner-friendly project to try, the result is always worth it. Crochet tapestry gives room for exploration and creativity. It can be a simple flower embedded in your piece or as intricate as an embroidery. Either way, creating your tapestry will surely brighten up your space.

Another household piece that can be crocheted is a rug. You could make it a centerpiece or just a small foot mat. The rug can be customized to fit your needs, either in size, shape, or design.
