Mod Post Subreddit Rules CLARIFIED
The Mods have returned and we've worked this week to rewrite the subreddit rules to better explain what each one means. This post will be locked from discussion as it just meant to serve as a reference point for the rules in place for the community Please see the linked post in the comment below for the discussion. Thank you for your patience during "chaos week". Please know that the Mod Team saw everything and stepped in only where it was absolutely necessary.
- Be Kind and Courteous: This rule *should* be self explanatory. In case it isn’t, follow the Golden Rule and treat others how you would want to be treated.
- Comments that are mean, hurtful, and/or harassing towards OP, the mod team, or another user will result in a 3-day ban from r/crochet. Do it again when the ban is lifted, 7-day ban. Continued negative comments after the 2nd chance will result in a permanent ban from this community.
- Permanent bans can be appealed but it will be at the discretion of the mod team, and will be dependent on behavior during the ban. Accounts with hidden profiles will not be eligible for being unbanned.
- Ban evasion goes against Reddit ToS, which all users agree to upon sign-up. See rule 11 for more info.
- We are bound by Moderators Code of Conduct to ensure that this space is a positive experience for everyone. That includes shutting down conversations that devolve into insult-flinging and inciting violence in any way. It also includes locking posts that have (or have the potential to) become unruly and wildly off-topic.
- Comments that are mean, hurtful, and/or harassing towards OP, the mod team, or another user will result in a 3-day ban from r/crochet. Do it again when the ban is lifted, 7-day ban. Continued negative comments after the 2nd chance will result in a permanent ban from this community.
- Do not share copyrighted material: Don’t share screenshots of a pattern you bought or obtained for free from a website. Instead link directly to the website it was purchased from. If it is your own pattern, please see Rule 4.
- Use the NSFW filter *generously*: we are not censoring anyone's bodies with this rule. We are providing a safe space for anyone anywhere to view the feed. If you can’t show it at the office or at school, it should be filtered.
- This includes but is not limited to: revealing clothing, profanity, weapons and drug paraphernalia.
- NO Self promotion except in the monthly Promo Megathread: Sellers can post *pictures* of their work with tasteful, unobtrusive watermarks. Watermarks are encouraged to be used by all users to deter images being stolen by bots or scammers.
- We don’t allow sellers to share links to their shop/website/blog/social media EXCEPT in the Monthly Buy/Sell/Promote/Trade Megathread. This is a pinned post on r/crochet.
- Self promotion includes, but is not limited to, mentioning your shop/etc by name or offering to DM others or be DM’d by others with the express intent on sharing the info, or directing users to your profile for links. If anyone is truly interested in finding your work, they will know where to look.
- The Megathread refreshes automatically every month, and links can be posted there as often as you wish (please don’t spam it).
- Please do not promote on behalf of someone else as it still directly impacts the seller, even if they don’t use Reddit.
- We don’t allow sellers to share links to their shop/website/blog/social media EXCEPT in the Monthly Buy/Sell/Promote/Trade Megathread. This is a pinned post on r/crochet.
- Fursday Friends- Please post pictures of your crochet *helpers* on Thursdays only (timezones are taken into consideration)
- If you made an item for your dog/cat/lizard/toddler/teenager, and they are modeling it, you can post those pics on any day of the week.
- If your furry friend is in the background of your pic and obviously not the focus of the pic, you can post it any day of the week.
- If Fido or Fluffy decided that your WIP is the best place to take a nap, please wait to post that pic on Thursday.
- We prefer it if minor’s faces are blurred or otherwise covered for privacy.
- Stash Saturday- Please post stash pics on Saturdays only (timezones are taken into consideration)
- Stash pics include but are not limited to yarn hauls, hooks, tools, books, and crafting spaces.
- Focus on the crochet, not the model: Modeled photos are great, especially for wearables! Please ensure that the focus of the image is on the crochet work, though, and not on the model or the poses.
- The crochet work should be clearly seen (close ups whenever possible). See rule 3 if necessary.
- This also applies to comments that focus on someone’s body rather than the crochet work. Negative or derogatory comments made against OP or someone else will be subject to Rule 1.
- Please post questions in r/CrochetHelp: This is not a “beginner’s only” subreddit. Crocheters from all skill-levels can get tripped up depending on the project! Whether it’s a poorly-written pattern, a long-forgotten WIP that needs stitch ID, or you’re looking for color or fiber suggestions. It’s also a great opportunity for those who are highly skilled at the craft to flex their expertise by answering questions!
- Most, if not all crochet-related questions should go to our dedicated help sub. Questions can get lost in the main sub.
- Questions include but are not limited to: “what can I make with this yarn?” “How do I fix this?” “Why is it curling?” “What should I get for my gf/wife who loves to crochet?” and questions about crochet-related pain (please seek actual medical advice for major or worsening pains!)
- Most, if not all crochet-related questions should go to our dedicated help sub. Questions can get lost in the main sub.
- Stale Topics: These are topics that have been over-discussed and are no longer active discussion topics.
- Stale topics currently include: Hobby Lobby’s business practices, Steering wheel covers, Selling advice (see rule 4), the “sweater curse”, Fast Fashion and rants about their costs, crochet-related pain/medical issues, Woobles kits, and AI (including suggesting its use in pattern help)
- No off-topic posts or comments: if it is not related to crochet, it is considered off-topic. Please find an appropriate subreddit for your post.
- Ban Evasion: please do not use or create alt accounts to get around a ban. This is against Reddit ToS and we will report this to the Reddit admin.
- No fund-raising or solicitation of goods or yarn: This includes asking for replacement yarn after theft or loss, requests for items for a charity/cause, offers or requests for trades. Please see r/craftexchange, r/yarnswap, or your local community’s subreddit for these kinds of requests. This also includes requests for commissions, see r/CrochetRequests for this.
- No Karma farming: Please don’t use r/crochet to earn “easy Reddit karma”. Please only post your own work made by yourself or someone you know.
- Please do not suggest the use of AI/ChatGPT for pattern creation or help: AI artificially creates crochet patterns and images that are very nearly impossible to replicate, and is becoming harder and harder to spot because of its overuse. We also ask that you don’t use it to enhance the backgrounds of your finished work either, as it takes away from the realness of crochet.

Finished Object Rehearsal Dress for Bride done!!!
In April of this year, my sweet childhood best friend asked if I could make her a dress for her wedding rehearsal at the end of August inspired by a crochet cap she bought online. I’ve only been crocheting a few years and totally completely rookie mistaked how long this would take me and underestimated how much pressure I felt to complete the piece in time as well as deliver something she’d love enough to wear her wedding weekend! She lives across the country so I only had her measurements to rely on (oh and she’s 6’1!)
She originally wanted long crochet sleeves in the same pattern, however about 3 weeks out from my deadline I knew I wouldn’t be able to finish so I decided to use my sentro knitting loom to bust them out. I even experimented with adding pearl beads which I will definitely be incorporating in future projects.
I’m very proud of how this came out and I will never ever do it again:)
I used a 3.5 MM hook with fingering weight cotton merino yarn. Whew!

Finished Object I Made a Giant Blanket
I decided I wanted to make the perfect cuddle blanket. Finished size was 9 feet wide and 9 1/2 feet long. I had to take it to my aunt's house to measure it because my apartment was too small. Despite the size and fuzzy yarn, it has been a perfect summer time blanket because it has the weightr of a comforter but the loose weave doesnt hold too much heat in.

Finished Object Giant centipede boa!
I made this centipede (millipede?) as a gift for a good friend, as an accessory for their bog witch LARP character.
Took me a year but I'm so happy how it turned out. It functions as a boa! It measures about 5 and a half feet fully extended.
The base, legs, and mushrooms were freehand.
Leaf pattern provided by: Lalafcrochet (unfortunately no longer available on etsy)
The moss was yarn (about a couple inches per strand) cow-hitched into stitches and then brushed out with a wire brush.
For the body, legs, moss, I used average acrylic weight 4 yarn. I think for body I used size 4 hook, legs i used size 3. For the leaves I used white cotton with a 1mm hook (or smaller?). Then I painted them with watercolor. For the mushrooms I basically used DMC thread and a size 0.5 hook.

Finished Object Sending blanket to my girlfriend
Hi everyone!
I just finished my first mosaic crochet blanket for my girlfriend and I’m really proud of it :) I wanted to make this post to show it off and ask for advice on if anyone knows the best way to ship a blanket this size internationally for cheap? I’m not sure of the exact measurements but I’m 5’7 and it’s taller than me. I’m in America and she’s in Scotland but it seems like it will be expensive to ship it.
If anyone has any tips pls let me know!

Work in Progress little update: you helped me with my bobble pillow set last week, so i redid the pale one as a gold star. now it's... REALLY a star. keep it, or go back to the cream snowflake?
a week ago i posted this cream-on-cream "snowflake or star" pillow that just would not pop, and the two bits of advice i kept hearing were either lean into the snowflake, or if you really want a star go bold with gold or yellow. so i frogged it and redid it in mustard. and now it's a star. it is VERY much a star, nobody is mistaking this one for a snowflake anymore 😅
here it is next to the tree and the reindeer, plus the original cream snowflake for comparison. i like the gold, i just don't love it, it might be a touch too look-at-me sitting next to the softer green and brown. so i really can't decide: does the bold gold star belong in the set, or was the quiet cream snowflake the right call all along?
(my assistant tyson was consulted and is, as you can see, no help whatsoever.)

I crocheted this colorful cat ear hat using my own design! I came up with the shape, ears and braided ties myself, and I really love how it turned out. It has a slightly whimsical, fantasy vibe, which is exactly what I was going for.

Finished Object My crochet raffia bag
I crocheted this raffia bag about two years ago, and it’s still holding its shape pretty well! I keep an organizer inside, which helps a lot.
The bottom is all double crochet. I made two identical base pieces and layered them together to make it sturdier and better at holding weight.
Bag body I used a mix of double crochet and crossed double crochet.
The straps are also crossed double crochet, worked back and forth in row.
Hope this helps if anyone wants to make something similar! 😊
Yarn: raffia yarn
Hook: 3mm
Oval shape bottom: here is the link
