Hi friends!! Lol this is my first time ever creating a post on Reddit so I apologize for any poor etiquette. Anyways, I’m getting married in October 2025 and have decided to crochet my wedding flowers! My bouquet + 2 bridesmaid bouquets and possibly 4 boutonnières for my fiancé and his groomsmen. I need advice on what kind of yarn to use? Do any of you have a specific weight/ brand of yarn for flowers? I feel overwhelmed when going to Michael’s or other craft stores and would really love some direction and/or advice! Thanks in advance ❤️

I just made this potholder and I can’t help but think it needs a border. Thoughts?

Potholder

For the record, I don’t really crochet yet (I’m still learning how). I mostly lurk in the crafting subs, and I can knit a little, but I thought this was interesting. A coworker of mine has a nephew that crochets, and another coworker was trying to commission a baby blanket from him. 

Coworker 1 showed what her nephew makes, a blanket with a serape pattern that uses 14 colors, and quoted her $80 for a “receiving blanket,” (I don’t know the size) including the materials. To my knowledge it wouldn’t be very high end yarn, maybe even acrylic.

Coworker 2 scoffed and quickly changed her mind, saying “maybe if it was $40, but I’m not paying that much for a baby blanket.“

I’m not sure how much time and materials he would have to spend on such a project. I do know that it would take me ages to knit something like that (I’m a slow knitter though), so I believe that the $80 was fair. It always bothers me that handmade items are so undervalued.

My coworkers were discussing blanket prices.

Just picked up a hook for the first time on the 8th of January. Used TikTok and YouTube tutorials and my lovely friends’ advice, and just completed a granny square scarf as my first project! 🥰 next up is a matching beanie! And maybe one for my dog too!

First ever project!

I’m supposed to be making a granny hexagon cardigan. I’m 21 rounds in and realized I made a pentagon instead of a hexagon. I am so freaking mad at myself.

I have to frog so so much

Ruffle Shorts 𐙚 ⋅˚

I decided to trust the process and go with the white, to sew the squares into a bag. Does it look a little odd because of the way I sewed some of them together? Yes. But, it is pretty sturdy and should hopefully keep the cat out of the yarn that I'm currently using for another project.

I tried to make it look like a flower. I think that I sort of succeeded in that. What do you all think?

Will this work? Update - it's better than I expected it to be

Are you struggling with pixel designs not working out the way you'd hoped when you crochet it? 

I've found the solution!

I don't know if this specific type of tapestry crochet has name, but I've been doing it for a while to get really clean line work with any grid design without sacrificing gauge like BLO tapestry crochet.

Introducing: Integrated Tapestry Crochet

I'm determined to give this crochet technique a name. Otherwise it's very difficult to explain because there's no way to search for this specific type of tapestry crochet.

So I've named it Integrated Tapestry Crochet.

This technique that did not have a name uses a mix of BLO, FLO and standard sc to create clean colour changes between rows, better line work, and doesn't affect the gauge or warp the design.

It integrates the best of BLO tapestry crochet with standard sc crochet.

You can find a tutorial here - https://guelphmarket.blog/2025/01/30/integrated-tapestry-crochet-brian-kwok/

'I Follow The Moon' granny square I made!

Top I made for my sister

So, my nan gave me the yarn in photo 1 a few days ago and I posted a photo of it on here asking for ideas. Then, I decided to try and make a granny square bag from it and use the yarn in photo 2 (which is a little bit lighter than in the photo), to sew the squares together like I've done to the two squares in photo 3 (the squares are not as bright as they are in the photo, but I did try spray blocking for the first time, so I think they are slightly darker than the actual yarn. But I'm not sure how that works, so it could just be the fact that the room I'm currently in is fairly dark). 

But now my brain is split in two as to if I do/don't like it, so I just wanted to ask if I should trust the process and keep going with the white, or if I should take the white part out and use the same colour as the squares?

Lost my hook, using an Allen wrench.. you?

Does anybody know any cheap kind of yarn turn holders that I could use for any size yarns? Right now I'm using a DIY one made out of cardboard and a old knitting needle I don't use lol. Anything under maybe 20 dollars CAD would be great, thanks!

I had the idea of crocheting two hearts and stitching them together and then putting candy inside of them. But I have no idea how to crochet a heart. Does anyone have a pattern?
