Instagram is a reflection of the stuff you click on. So long as you take that to heart, then you'll do fine.
Make sure you flat out reject and ban anything you don't like (either use the ... or long press and say "I don't like this").
Make sure you turn off feed suggestions (they are the ones with the x in the top right) That'll stop Instagram injecting targeted, and stuff some poor IC has been forced to cram into your feed to suit some metric. Then you'll have a feed that shows you updates from people you follow, then when you get to the end suggested posts.
The explore tab has a different persona to who you follow. So you can be obsessivly following knit crafters in your feed, but your explore tab could be filled with something entirely orthogonal. You will get inclusions from explore into your main feed suggestions, but you can reject them by either scrolling over them quickly (not that effective) or long press -> I don't like.
