✨🎶Who’s That Wonderful Giiiiirl🎶✨

Reposted because I forgot the photo 💀😔

My officemate LOVES Mona, so for her birthday this year, I made her one! It’s the first thing I’ve ever made that wasn’t a blanket or beanie

Am I the only one who can't remember how to crochet something?

Please tell me I am not the only crocheter who makes something and can't remember how to do so later on. I always think “Oh I will remember how I crochet that” (I spent hours, sometimes weeks, on it after all), which repeatedly proves false. I’ve improved at taking notes, but I have A LOT of them that are half tended to and/or missing links to the pattern. I look at some of my projects months later and am amazed I accomplished them lol.

Yarn sources?

Hi! I figured this would be a good online yarn-dumping spot where we can share recs.

For those not based in the US or other urban locations, where do you get your yarn? I've gotten some pretty good Amazon deals for plush yarn a couple times, but sometimes shipping can raise the price of a single skein to $15-$30.

I'm curious to see if there are alternative options available for those of us without as many local options 🤷‍♀️

Guess how many chains there are

Bought this beautiful alpaca yarn to make a shawl.... I didn't realize it would be the death of me.

Crochet instagram mutuals?

If you have a crochet instagram account please share your handle! I have just made a very new instagram page and I'd love to be mutuals with more people who crochet too.

I mostly crochet clothing designs for myself and I have quite an alternative style. I'm hoping to start sharing more of my creations with the new account!

six day star blanket turned one month star blanket

at the time i started this, i had only been crocheting for five days and really wanted to try the betty mcknit star blanket, now i’m proud to say i’ve finally finished it!! i’ve since completed two other projects since starting this but this blanket is by far my longest and biggest.

this pattern has taught me so muchand the yarn adds so much flair to it! it’s hayfield spirit chunky ([https://sirdar.com/en/products/hayfield-spirit-chunky-100g?taxon_id=1601])

C2C Decrease

I designed a C2C blanket using stitch fiddle. The written instructions had two separate decreases places within 7 rows of each other. Is this because it's slightly rectangular? Also, how would I do each decrease? Thank you

Neon stripey sweater!

Please accept for your consideration this bathroom selfie of the first sweater I ever made that I feel OK leaving the house in lol. Through a combination of stubbornly refusing to do a gauge swatch and not noticing I accidentally mis-read the pattern until it was too late it’s a little more cropped than I expected. But on the other hand it was great practice in modifying and adapting!

Newfound respect

Man, Ive always loved your guys' works from afar here on reddit. But Ive never known it was this hard.

Im currently trying to learn crochet to make my grandparents some gifts, since Ive never known what to get them. So what better than to make them?

Chaining took me about 5 minutes to learn, ths yarn kept falling off the hook and I had no idea why, now I have a chain of various tightness/looseness. But since Ive gotten that down pretty ok, Ive tried to move on to single crochet. I cant even tell if this looks right lol

Im going to spend another hour to keep going and see where I get. But I just wanted to let you all know; WOW youre amazing for what you can make doing this.

(This particular project is not anything yet, just working from the chain and beyond until I get comfortable doing their gifts :) )
