When it feels like it is hard to see the tangible results from my current research stage, or I'm in a rut, I pull out the crochet hook to see visible results in a project. Plus, it's great stress relief. #PhD #crochet

I'm finishing up my second year of a PhD in Education. So far, it's been a great experience but I really need to work on my procrastination when it comes to writing haha!
