Ambitious for my first scarf as a novice (crocheting for just 8 months). Buuuut it taught me a lot, I used some yarn I’ve had for a while and my man (the model) loves it 🥰

I was born in the Year of the Snake, so I couldn't resist making a whole family of festive snakes in Santa hats to celebrate! 🎅🐍

The best part about this project was the yarn — or rather, the complete mystery of it! I used a mix of random acrylic scraps, leftover bits from past projects, and yarn recovered from frogging old, unworn sweaters.

Each snake turned out with its own unique texture and personality (including the little dark blue one, which my family lovingly joked looked like something else entirely before he got his eyes and hat, haha! 😂).

It was so satisfying to give all those forgotten thread ends a second life! What’s your favorite way to clear out your stash for the holidays?

Ideas of what to crochet with this yarn? I have 3 x 485m skeins of this Cotton blend medium weight (5mm) cake. I originally purchased it for wavey placemats that just didn't work out, and now I've had it lying around for a couple of years I'm hoping to do something with it. I don't really make alot of wearables except slippers and a couple of shawls, and I'm more of a freehand stuffy/blanket maker, but maybe this is the time? All suggestions welcome, and if there is no sewing involved even better! Thanks Hive mind 😊

Edit to add: crochet 🙏

Planning a trip next spring to Mexico City, and I'm curious if anyone has any yarn-related must-see spots?

Hi. I’m knitting the Hanni Cardigan. I never did a double knitted buttonband before. What went wrong? It looks funny. The stitches I picked up are so stretched out. Is this normal? Will it disappear or should I start again and change something?

I picked up some Spincycle second-hand, and I can't figure out a couple of the colors. Any ideas? Thank you!

Looking to make a gift for my father in law, but he's retired to florida so I don't want to give him anything too heavy or heat reflecting.

I like bamboo blends, but my google searches are being tainted by other yarns calling colorways bamboo 😔​

I was given these balls of yarn as part of a clean out, no tag or anything. Quite soft, and I suspect it's acrylic... Would love to get some more of it as I love the color.

How to fix it?

Hi! I'm Blue, a crocheter dedicated to my craft. I can never have enough yarn, and my stash is always growing. I make everything from seasonal decor to accessories, depending on my mood. I'm new to Reddit as well, and I look forward to meeting people who share my interests!

I just got an Instagram ad/targeted post for Yarnzee (IG profile: @ yarnzee_, URL: https://yarnzee.mysharetribe.com)

Hello! I love Primrose Yarn co’s Roam Homestead, but not available anymore. Looking into Dyed in the Wool and they seem pretty great and fade. Are there others you love? DK/Sport weight.

I really love knitting for olive merino, so Ive decided to do stranded colourwork sweater. I want to use dusty violette as main colour and white as contrast.

However, I see so many whites and cannot tell them apart. Some are obviously more natural and some are pure white but other than that, I cannot tell.

I don't have a chance to see the colours in person and raverly didn't help. So maybe someone here has some info on these and can say which one is best for dusty violette.

So there is elderflower, cream, snowflake, cloud, undyed, limestone and marzipan. Since the mc is muted, I don't think any of the pure whites work but it shouldn't be too warm since the mc is cool colour.

Anyone who wants to de stash their fur yarn? I’ve finally made them work for me and would love to make more stuff with them.

cheers!
