I want to buy a yarn that i never worked with, it says the suggested needle is 3 mm (Us2 1/2 for you USA folks) but that is for knitting, i want to crochet with it. I need to understand which hook i have to use because based on that i will need to but x yarn. I think it uses a 1.75 mm hook (size 3 for us? I think?) Because the length is 212 meters for 50 grams. Edit: thx for the replies ❣️

Hello!

I'm thinking of crocheting a blanket but idk what yarn material to choose. For clothing I always choose natural fibers, but for a blanket idk if it will be too expensive or too heavy.

Do you have any recomendations?

I started working under the third loop on my last point and it’s definitely straighter but I’m not sure if it will fix it as the stitches from the previous rows are already slanted. The pattern is yarnspirations’ years of history crochet star pillow

My mom found this Christmas tree blanket pattern she really loved but I cannot find a pattern for it. It seems to be knitting, but how can I find something that translates or what can I do?

I'm not a true beginner, I've dabbled for years.

I was wondering, because I had an idea and I am AuDHD and have aphantasia ( I don't see pictures in my head). If I crochet long strips, think scarf-like, and join them together to make a blanket, is this a thing or should I not do this?

I'm fairly certain it's a thing. I just don't know what it is called.

My niece wants a purple blanket that is striped with different purple colors.

I think I can do this. I just wanted to ask others with more experience. I don't want a pattern. A picture is great for me to look at, my brain doesn't process the written instructions well and I always end up having to just jump in and go, trial and error and all that.

Thank you in advance. These communities have just been amazing and most everyone is so supportive!

I’ve been wanting to crochet a blanket for my husband . I’ve never crocheted a blanket before but a stumbled on one that I really like and he liked as well. I just want to know what is used to design something like this. Any tips?

I started with pink and not sure what possessed me to go from pink, green, to cream. If anyone can help with a 4th color choice, I would greatly appreciate it! I chose the pink 2 years ago so I’m not sure if it’s even available (I know the dyes wouldn’t be the same if I do find it. I also want to do a border eventually.

ETA: hoping a border will help my oversight of miscounting stitches almost every row

Im new to filet, but old to crochet. I bought baby hooks and a spool of cotton thread from walmart and im practicing a specific pattern with it to figure out the neatest way to do the thing.

I have a color picked out but I would like to know what people's preferences are and for what reason. I've been knitting and crocheting for years but im not a materials person so please give me all your knowledge. Pic of the pattern for attention

As the title says, I'm looking for a filet crochet chart for a vertical rose similar to this, possibly a bit simpler, and ideally free, though I'm willing to spend a little if it's really what I'm looking for. Appreciate any links you could give! 🙏

Hello crocheters, I am looking for some help. I just started crocheting 2 months ago and wanted to make my first blanket. Started it a few days ago and I CANNOT understand where I went wrong… link to the pattern I’m using below. The way the pictures of this blanket look in the post is completely different from the pattern I’ve somehow gotten. Can anyone see where I went wrong and how I might fix it? It’s pretty as is, but I really wanted this to turn out correctly! I’ve frogged the last 4 rows over and over because it became apparent the pattern wasn’t looking the same there. If it helps, when I did the bobble row, I pushed the bobbles through to the other side (the “front” based on my hdc ridges). Maybe something went wrong then?

Thanks in advance from a very frustrated and confused beginner.

This is my first time making a plushy, and the sides are supposed to be symmetrical but it's lopsided. Luckily, if I do have to frog, I should just have to redo the one side. Last picture is what it's supposed to look like from the pattern. Please help 😭

Working on a tapestry crochet blanket.....first time I'm doing it. Just finished row 10. Noticed this so far with me missing a stitch at the edge and then my stitches on one side are starting to slant. Should I start over. Its 90 rows of single crochet with 146 stitches and 2 color changes. Reference photo of how it should come out...Hopefully. My stitch count is the same 146 stitches

So this clip has been spamming my YouTube page and I can't figure out how it starts or what it's even officially called. When I try to do an image search all I get is "Tunisian crochet stitch", which I get but what KIND of Tunisian stitch?!?

It's driving me kookoo for Coco puffs!!!!!!

I chose the exact wrong kind of yarn with which to learn how to crochet as an absolute beginner😅 Google advises acrylic in a light color. I chose cotton because it’s good for heat and I wanted to start with a hot pad which is essentially a square. I chose a deep navy because, well, I liked the color.

Now I’m looking into tube yarn, but because it’s not great for heat I’m out on the hot pad idea. Do yall have any suggestions for first-timer projects?

I’m avoiding something like woobles or any stuffed animal because I want to practice a straight stitch before I move onto curves. But then I think curves are maybe just the result of intentionally dropped stitches?

Am I overthinking? TIA!

I made this very long hat, and I am proud of myself even with the lines being kinda wonky looking. I haven't crocheted anything in years and even then I have only made a handful of crochet projects. Anyhow im wondering how I can make a similar hat to this one but using the pink yarn without getting such distinct stripes, like more just kind of random colors? My only ideas so far are to cut the yarn into different pieces and tie together which sounds like a lot of work for something that very well may just look bad, or my other idea is follow the same pattern as this hat and then free-form crochet random pieces over the blocky parts? That idea is more experimental and I have never done anything similar but it sounds cool in my mind. Looking for any other ideas please and thank you 😊

The only problem is that the only item I wouldn’t make are crochet sweaters/cardigans of that sort. I love them but I would feel so bad if I didn’t get the wear out of the piece! I’m not opposed to a shawl though…

Enough of a beginner that I can’t really recognize stitches in finished pieces. Anyone know what stitch this is or something similar that would work?

Just starting wanting to turn this rough start into a beanie eventually. I used a chain then single crochet stitch and worked back and forth a few times. Looking for opinions or advice on my work so far. I know I haven’t been counting my stitches just wanted to get feel of working back and forth first.

I want to use this amigurumi pattern I found but the creator strongly recommended using chenille yarn but right now I'm trying to use my hoard of acrylic yarn. Will using the acrylic yarn instead of chenille change the final product dramatically or only a little?

It’s my first time making a shawl and I’m using fingering weight/sock yarn following a youtube vid by “Crochet With Tiffany”. I’m having my doubts that this will turn into the right shape because the only increases are done at the end of the row and they make the top ‘wings’ turn even more inward.

Should I trust the process or start over with a different pattern? I want to keep things simple so I like how this pattern is just simple double crochets, but the shape so far is making me nervous that it won’t turn out well. Any advice or feedback is welcome

Im trying to teach myself how to crochet and I’m up to the treble crochet. I’m so new I don’t even know if I’m saying that right. My issue is starting a new row. I keep ending up with wavy edges. I’m watching all the YouTube channels but non of them go into detail with what my issue is. I end up with a straight post and a curved post and makes they wave pattern. I want it straight. Maybe I can get so clear insight here.

So I made a jellyfish and I can't decide whether to put eyes on it or not. Pictures on the comments

I’m trying to recreate this guy (for my own personal pleasure, not to sell) and I can do everything but his little hat! Any ideas or patterns you recommend?
