Chinese New Year: Ox & Cow Crochet Patterns

Happy New Year 2021! Man, what a crazy year 2020 was! Who would’ve thought we would spend so much time inside, and not able to enjoy outdoor activities! I hope that we can spend more time outdoor in 2021!

So this year’s Chinese New Year is on February 12th, and the animal is an ox (I don’t know about China and other countries, but Japan also refers to a cow). Here’s what kind of characteristics a person has who is born in the year of ox:

People born in the Year of the Ox are industrious, cautious, hold their faith firmly, and always glad to offer help.

Other characteristics I found for ox are hardworking, diligent, dependable, and honest.
