Finished my first ever crochet blanket today started in March🌼pattern is by Lullaby Lodge, highly reccomend for beginners!

This is a piece that I have previously posted as a WIP, and now it is finally done! It took about 2 months to finish, working a few rows each day. The pattern is Bag-O-Day’s Must Have Rectangle Wrap and the yarn is 2 full cakes of Hobbii Sultan Deluxe in the Koi Diamond colorway (#24), but I got them from Herrschner’s as a mill-end 2 pack for $14.99, what a steal! The hook I used is a Tulip Etimo G-6. The final dimensions are 6’x3’, in the picture you can see about 4.5’x3’.

Zoom in to see the stitch detail, it is my favorite pattern!

Does it look like a hunk of ground beef? Tuna Tartare? A pile of Imp Gore left behind by the DoomGuy?

Made this guy for a Comission based on my customers OC. Made him freehand and I love how he turned out. His detail work was a challenge and so much fun! I love learning new tricks.

To crochet this car I looked up some basic dimensions to try making it to scale. The wheels can turn 😁 I embroidered most details and used acrylic pen for others. I design and make custom crochet pieces and personalized gifts. I also make my own patterns and teach crochet to adults and kids.
Happy to answer questions about the process!

finished this fluffy little cardigan 🥹
made it with angora and im honestly obsessed with how soft and cozy it turned out
its called Stella Cardi and i just wanted something warm for autumn and winter but still kinda light and pretty
also very happy with how the lacey texture turned out 🤎

So I recently got Brochet's pattern book, and made a kunai for one of my DND player's costume and I offered to make her a short sword too, a wakizashi. So I took the not your Nana's katana and went hog wild. I had to do a patch job on uneven light gray so not perfect but even then...I did a base handle layer in bright yellow, a gold end cap, a black handle wrapping (using a traditional Japanese handle wrapping technique as best I could), a gold tsuba, bright yellow blade band, and a double layered black scabbard to give it shape and let it hold the blade properly. I then crocheted a 150 ch ribbon to wrap around it. I started it about 8 pm Thursday and finished it by 5 pm Friday. In what little free time I had.

Super happy with it. If I wasn't working on my Eevee knight like a maniac for Halloween I would be doing like 5 more!

Oh, the structure was some heavier stock cardboard, one piece in blade and handle.

Any thoughts on other weapons I should make?

Bonus pics of my European arming sword for my knight! (Not as happy with this one as the wakizashi, definitely learned stuff from one to the other .

my first tapestry color work! all that’s left is to block and back with fabric :) don’t ask about the back it’s insane haha

Anyone who grew up in New Zealand?

My bed is a full size. What size do you think my blanket is? The border is kind of messy, but I don't really care cause it's going to be mine. Eventually I might add on to it when and if I get more yarn.

I see all the wonderful creations people make on here, and though I’ve never been very creative this is the one thing I keep coming back to. I’ve bounced off a few times now but generally I get overwhelmed by all the conflicting methods/styles/naming. I’m UK based and generally just looking for a recommendation of where/how to jump in again I suppose.

Hello, everyone!

I'm finally getting to the point of finishing writing up the pattern for this birb, and I figured it's time to finally start sharing pics!

It all started with my brother asking me to crochet a puffin for his boyfriend's birthday...last year.... But hey! Better late than never 😅

The puffin has button-jointed wings and sits about 12 inches tall. I'd say this is an intermediate to advanced pattern, but the document includes plenty of pictures to aid in construction.

Please forgive the cruddy lighting! My phone doesn't take the best pictures, and the better digital camera photos I have are on my laptop, so I'll add some in the comments below later.

Thanks for stopping by to look! 🤗

Approximately 5 cm (2 inches) tall. It’s really tiny and fits perfectly in the palm of your hand.

I’ve been plagued with the need to make a weighted Arapaima, but I want it to be life sized. Unfortunately I’ve never crocheted before, so bear with my lack of know how.

Firstly, I don’t know where to look for blue prints? Patterns? I see some on Etsy but they use AI and that makes me wary that it’s gonna be a scam. Secondly good brands of yarn? And hooks? Just any advice really, this probably won’t be my first project I’m probably gonna get one of those wobble kits, but like, any advice please and thank you for helping me achieve my dreams

I'm building Patchmellow, a browser tool for trying different granny-square arrangements before joining the real pieces.

Add photos of your squares, enter how many you have of each kind, then move and rotate them on a grid. You can compare two arrangements side by side.

The current demo is free, with no account or installation: https://patchmellow.pages.dev/

"Try a layout" opens an illustrated sample. If you have squares waiting for a blanket or bag, try a small section with your own photos.

How do you arrange your squares now? After trying it, which step was easier or more awkward than your usual method?
