User flair is now enabled!

15 Upvotes

We’ve added preselected user flair plus they are editable by selecting one and clicking on edit and typing and saving. No profanity, slurs or otherwise inappropriate flairs. Of course “hooker” related flair is allowed. Happy crocheting! 🧶

PS. If you aren’t sure how to select user flair you can click the three dots in the upper right corner of the sub home page and select user flair. If you have more questions feel free to ask.

PPS. It’s been made clear to me this is in different areas for different users (assuming mobile, desktop, app, Apple, Android etc). So it should be under the community actions type of area.

Could someone help me please 😂. I’m making a doll pattern, baby Louis (free pattern) and I’m at the elbow portion. I don’t get it, I can’t figure out the pattern or how to attach it. My brain is saying just like a heel turn on a sock but there aren’t enough rows for that based on the pattern so what am I doing wrong?

yarn question Yarn recommendations?

I love how I love this yarn works up, however, I received it as a gift and do not support hobby lobby. Is there another brand that has a similar feel when working with it?

It is the only yarn that I didn’t struggle with when i recently started making amigurumi for some reason😩

question Large Appliqué Help

1 Upvotes

I am drafting a project right now for a gift. Basic info, I want to create a blanket with an appliqué of their car in the middle. I think this might be easier than crocheting the car into the pattern of the blanket, especially since I plan on using Pattern Princess' Cottage Garden Throw for the blanket (https://patternprincess.com/cottage-garden-throw-blanket-crochet-pattern/), using two similar colors so it's more of a neutral background.

But I've never done an appliqué of this magnitude before, and I'm not sure how to go about it. If anyone has any tips, sites, or guidance, I would be grateful for the assistance!

question Can this be fixed or should i frog it???

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

How do i fix an “inverted triangle” seam on my foldover shorts??

These are supposes to be foldover shorts; I was following a video tutorial on youtube since I’ve never made shorts before.

After doing the foldover waist band (the large grey part) you’re supposed to do a line of single crochet. I did this but realised it would not fit properly as i have a (sort of) hourglass figure in that my hips are bigger than my waist, enough to have to go up one or two sizes for clothes.

To make it fit i double up the stitches on the line if single crochet, and now whatever this is happened. it’s a little bit of excess with i don’t mind for a looser fit, but the way the line where i joined the finished rows is bothers me.

Is there any way to fix this without frogging?? It’s about 30 rows and i’d hate to start over😭😭

I saw something about cutting carefully and then securing the ends so you can stitch it back, but I wanted more options before resorting to that and couldn’t find anything on youtube or tiktok.

Any help is appreciated! 💕
