5 Reasons Why I Like The FIFA World Cup

I know... The first thing you're thinking is what does this have to do with crocheting and helping children and adults with life threatening illnesses, you'll see:

1) Gives me a chance to sit and crochet uninterrupted

Honestly,  one of the biggest challenges I have is time. I am a college student and work full time to help make money not only for bills but to pay for materials. Any chance I can to sit, I crochet or work on something for Kitten's Needle Work.  And the World Cup gives me 2 hrs of crochet time!

2) It's Exciting

I know it's not as high scoring as the other sports going on but guess what? When those players do get a goal, they are the most excited people I have ever seen. The passion spurs me on and I love celebrating with them! Plus I can look down at what I'm doing and not get too distracted until a goal happens.

3) Great Energy

The excitement of the fans is amazing! Great for me and I can feed off that as I work on these items. I love being able to have good energy around me as I work. I try to pour love into the items.

4) I'm cheering for USA!

USA has a young team which for some reason makes people think they aren't contenders. I love cheering for the underdog in general and I love it when they prove people wrong! I want the US to prove that we are a force to be reckoned with and not to count us out!

5) The stories behind the teams are inspiring

I love hearing about the teams and how hard they had to work to get where they are. I love seeing their triumphs ( even though US is gonna win *cough cough*). That is something I need to see to have hope for these kids and to keep hope alive as I work. God is a big source of that but positivity helps too.

I know there's a lot of controversy around the games and it's location but there is some good in it. And in a negative world sometimes you need to focus on the good!

Plus I was able to make these coasters to try to raise funds for more materials! They're 10 for $12 or 10 for $10  if you subscribe to this blog! If you would like them, send a comment to me saying yes and I will message you!
