My first chains.

I decided to start a new hobby by learning to crochet. After hours of confusion and wrong hand placement I finally figured out how to make a chain. The slipknot was easy but after that I struggled. Here is my first chain (it’s awful and I’m so proud of it) and the second is a tighter chain next to my first. What are some first easy projects I can start on that you all recommend. I still struggle with hand placement and keeping it tight. All advice welcome.
