The Ugly Blanket That Taught Me Everything

Brewed Down

My first crochet blanket looks like it had been mauled by a raccoon on meth.


That failure turned out to be a priceless gift. Each lopsided stitch and uneven row was a step toward the kind of craft I can now brag about.

  • Early “failures” were just tutorials I didn’t know I was taking.
  • Sock-darning taught me patience and a healthy respect for needles (and how to get blood out of wool....tip: don't get blood on the wool is the easiest fix).
  • Every ugly project taught me how to make the next one a little less gross.


Keep making ugly blankets, whether in business, hobbies, or AI prompts. Ugly builds skill.
