100% cotton yarn

I have been working with 100% cotton yarn brand name suger and cream to make my first ever blanket and I was wondering will it shrink when I wash it or how can I prevent it.

Inspired by mermaids, gold and pirates

This is the Cute Tanktop Pattern by TCDDIY on youtube, with some modification for length. I did the pattern in pale rose this summer and wasn't too happy with the result when suddenly inspiration hit me: I saw a vision of this piece in turqoise and gold and had to make it immediately! I used a 5mm hook. The turqoise yarn is 100% lyocell, the gold yarn was like 98% viscose and polyester I think. The only downside is that with these crazy summers it was too warm to wear anything else than thin cotton tops, but it was great once the weather cooled down. It's crazy stretchy too, I made a size S when I wear M to L depending on the brand.

How do I dress this doll?

I made a gingerbread baby doll (see photo) for a pattern release planned for this Friday (11/24). I planned to make clothes for it - shorts with suspenders for a "boy" version and an apron dress for a "girl" version, done in the same color as the doll with the same white trim, like you would find on a cookie.

Only I just fell down an internet rabbit hole and now I'm rethinking my original plan and debating making the "boy" outfit a white shirt with brown lederhosen and the "girl" outfit a brown dirndl with a white shirt and apron.

And I have less than 24 hours because I have to take and edit photos tomorrow before I lose the daylight. I don't think I have time to make all four.

HALP.

What should I crochet?

Hey guys. I pet sit for these people down the street, she's a mom with a daughter around my age. They have a dog, cat, and snake. I crocheted this tiny crochet Santa hat for them because I'm so thankful but I wanna crochet another something little. Any ideas? Preferably that only takes a few hours 😭

Time to connect my granny hex cardigan!

I'm terrified that after over a month of working on this it won't come our right. Now it's time to connect everything and extend the arms and torso.

I'm about to start learning crochet in the Netherlands. What are the Dutch terms in English that I need to know?

I have seem a few books and magazines and have one amigurumi magazine with an intro and access to videos, but knowing the English terms would really help me to begin with especially as I think I'd also learn with videos to begin.

Need encouragement

I am on the sleeves of this cardigan. It’s my first wearable besides a beanie I have ever made and the front and back panel look so blocky. I’m just hoping others have completed ed this pattern and can give me encouragement that it will look fine when it’s done 😩
