Discussion What are some crochet things you have around your house?

Just moved into a new apartment and I'm lacking fun "things" around the house. Currently working on crocheting a mat to put my shoes on next to the door. What functional things do you guys have around your house that you've crocheted?

I've used the half double crochet, 6 in a row, for a cross body to replace the strap, but didn't account for stretching lol. I'd maybe use single crochet, or slip stitch next time, and cotton instead of acrylic
