This is Jerry :) he's a duck. got the pattern from Sweet Softies on Youtube for free :) What do you think of Jerry?

I crocheted the skirt and top for my costume. Constructive criticism is welcome and will be appreciated.

...resulted in me confusing the green yarn with brown 🥲🥲🥲 no way to save this bc everything is hot glued in place LOL

Looking for inspiration and advice! My current WIP is a patch blanket with pixel grid crochet patches, I’m bordering many of the patches to make them look neater. This is my first ever patch blanket. What is your guys’s preferred method to stitch together patch crochet and/or granny squares?

Also, any fun patch ideas or granny squares to throw in there? I don’t have any particular theme but so far have some fun moons, coffee cup, hearts, and flowers!

For this blanket I used a 5 mm hook. The granny square patern is called "wild bloom mandala" by wizards of loops. It's a YouTube totorial tutorial

For me, it’s the virus stitch. Just can’t.

Everything my grandma and great aunt have passed onto me. They're not dead or anything, just arthritic and prefer knitting now! 6 blankets and one vest. I've only worked on two of them so far and have owned most of them for several years at this point oops. 😅

Anyone else got some inherited WIPs? Maybe some that are even more sentimental and from loved ones who are no longer with us? (If I get confident enough at tiny hooks and thin yarn, my grandma said she has some projects from her late mother stashed away somewhere!!)

So I have been seeing the Sirdar Christmas Gingerbread blanket everywhere and immediately knew it was going to take the place of all of my other WIPs lol 🤣

I mostly use Premier Yarns, so had to do some color matching and I thought I might as well share here in case anybody else might find it useful! I included worsted and DK matches (the pattern is written in DK but I think I’ll be doing mine in worsted, I’ll adjust amounts as I see fit)

Obviously colors won’t be identical but it will still look beautiful and be budget friendly, and soft! Win win in my book.

Premier Basix DK 100g (in matching order to Sirdar’s pattern): 1142-02 Cream 1142-42 Mocha 1142-34 Mint 1142-53 Cherry Red 1142-13 Ballet Pink 1142-63 Holly 1142-51 Yellow 1142-15 Petal Pink 1142-10 Red

Premier Yarns Basix Worsted: 1115-32 Cream 1115-70 Cocoa 1115-93 Mint 1115-13 Garnet 1115-16 Blush 1115-55 Pine 1115-05 Lemon 1115-10 Taffy 1115-72 Cherry Red

I hope this is helpful for someone! 🩷 happy crafting!

I’m sure many of you know woobles, the “starter” crochet kits for those interested in trying it out, I’m still extremely new to the hobby myself and I’ve finished a few of my own projects however looking back at it, around two years ago I was gifted a kit. I remember being so frustrated and simply not understanding the video at all to the point that after a few days of trying and watching it on the slowest speed possible I just gave up.

I tried again a month ago by just using the yarn I already had from the kit and using a total beginner video to make a coaster. I finally felt that achievement of completing a project despite it not being amazing. I’ve seen many funny and cute fails with woobles, and many posts by now asking for help understanding woobles. Has anyone started with woobles? What are your thoughts on it, and do you think it’s a complete beginner friendly experience?

TLDR; Woobles are not that beginner friendly, what do you think?

I made this for a 6 year old's birthday party tomorrow. I hope she likes it! How'd I do?
