Hi there,
My wife was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer last summer at a young age and I grabbed her two Woobles to keep her mind busy/give her a potential outlet for any sadness/anxiety/rage she might have. It was a big hit and I think I've spent about $500 on Woobles at this point to keep her going and get her proverbial sea legs about her. With Mother's Day coming up, I was looking into getting her something crochet-centric to further help her dive into this hobby and give her more confidence in the things she is creating. I'm all for doing research, but I truthfully feel a bit lost with this as I tend to our daughter, my job, etc., so I figured I would come here and ask folks for good gift ideas for someone who is just starting to branch out beyond your common step-by-step Wooble-style crochet kits. There's so many dangerous AI ads selling things that look cute, helpful, etc. out there that simply steal your payment information or hold your money hostage, and I want to avoid those pitfalls, as well.
Thanks so much for your time!
