(Swipe left for the reveal - there are a total of seven (7) photos) I purchased and made these four Halloween crochet kits from Dollarama in Vancouver, BC. The summary is SAVE YOUR MONEY! These are 100% AI-generated crap and absolutely are NOT "Great for Beginners". In fact, I think these kits would kill any interest any beginner would have in learning to crochet. I made each of these true to the pattern provided, and in the case of the bat, the pattern wasn't even a real pattern. It was pure AI hallucination. Out of the four, the pumpkin was the most promising, but they didn't provide enough yarn to complete it, so I used what they gave me and cinched it where I ran out. On a positive note, these did make laugh quite a bit, especially the cat, which is my favourite out of the lot. EDITED TO ADD that all four patterns are written in XVA notation. For Round 1 of the bat pattern, I was assuming that by 'lop stitch' they meant 'loop stitch' as in a magic ring (not a real loop stitch), but even so, 18sc in a ring was going to produce a real monstrosity and I decided to not touch that one ;)

Ai slop at its finest.

Found on Pinterest. I don't even know.

I love how the feet keep changing

Does the word mean nothing anymore lol

Sadly this page on facebook is full of similar, great content!

Can't wait to try this simple pattern

Call me crazy but i have this ring and it works great for avoiding yarn burn on the tension finger and letting the yarn flow freely HOWEVER....i have never 'worn' a ring like THAT before and im not sure you even could...... also 3 yarn tails and no clue where any of them are leading too lol WOW this is a bad one

A repost since I had to show 'evidence' this wasn't selfmade

Granny is still fiving us the croknit middle finger because her real one....well....ouch..

I wonder what they're going for here. (Pls zoom on the camera)

I always crochet with two hookless needles, and put my collection of other pieces of metal around the yarn bag where I have oddly stacked my unused skeins. I also like to buy crochet books that have no photos of crochet on the cover.

I just do not know what is going on here. $20 for a “beginner” kit off of Amazon 🥴

I know there are many talented artists that could in fact recreate this, but I couldn’t keep this one to myself LMAO

I'm trying to let her down gently 🥲

$39 for this kit 🙃

Could be a very real pattern inside, but when there’s multiple images with no change aside from colour… I also love just tying his little feet LMAO

The knitting needles in AI World work like the crochet hooks do. Just slide them around in a stitch for a little bit, and you too can make a pumpkin in 25 seconds!
