You know the feeling. You’ve got your crafting supplies all set up, you’re in the zone, and then… something goes wrong. Whether it’s a snag in your project, a mistake you can’t undo, or just a lack of inspiration, we’ve all been there. If you’re a crafter, then you know that these problems are all part of the game. In fact, some of them can be downright maddening. Today, we’re going to take a look at the top 10 crafter problems. 

Time-Management Madness 

You sit down at your crafting table with all of your materials neatly arranged… and two hours later, you realize you haven’t accomplished anything. 

Organization becomes overwhelming 

You’ve got all those weird and wonderful tools, yarn and supplies, not to mention all the extra bits that seem to accumulate like dust bunnies under the couch. 

Social Media Comparison Guilt 

It’s all too easy to scroll through your social media feed and feel like you’re constantly comparing yourself to other crafters. 

Finding Authentic Inspiration 

Whether it’s deciding how to spruce up a room or how to make unique accessories, many crafters struggle with finding authentic inspiration. 

Perfectionism 

It’s a crafter’s best friend and worst enemy, and it can be an absolute nightmare. 

The Inevitable Crafting Slump 

It’s like you’ve run out of creative juice and all those unfinished projects start to pile up.

Ready to Create, but Not Sure What to Make 

It can be extremely frustrating and often lead to the defeatist attitude of just giving up before you’ve even started.

Tangled knots

When you glance away for a second and your yarn has been strangely entangled into a million knots.

Knitting, crochet and crafting are great way to express your creativity, but it can also be a huge pain. From finding the perfect supplies to dealing with messy projects, crafters often have to overcome some pretty big obstacles.

So the next time you’re struggling with a crafting project, remember that you’re not alone. And with a little patience and perseverance, you can overcome any obstacle.
