Crochet - Blog Posts
hey there!! i wouldn’t ask if i wasn’t desperate, but im kind of new to using crochet patterns and this one has me completely stumped on round 4. i tried a multitude of keywords to find a tutorial but i just cant find anything :( i was wondering if u could help me puzzle it out because ive seen granny squares of similar complexity on your blog before. no worries if not tho!!
I will do my best to help!!
I know this is a one color square but for the purpose of clarity- I did a color change
...
After fastening off at the end of row 3, it wants you to join at one of the triple crochets that separates the chain spaces
"working *behind* the third row"
(I would just flip it around)
"chain 5, slip stitch in next triple crochet. Repeat 8 times ending with a slip stitch at the beginning of the row"
(Slip stitch the ch 5s to each Triple Crochet)
You should have a row of loops on the *wrong side* of the square, parallel to the petals
I hope this helps!! 🙏

:+: Crochet Akutagawa :+:
After a full day of crocheting (which is waaay less time then I expected) I have completed my own version of a crochet Akutagawa.
I made him from cotton, which is my usual yarn medium. I used a basic doll base and tweaked it to my preference, then made him his frilled undershirt, coat and cravat.
I must say, the hair was the hardest part of this project and I’m still not completely happy with the outcome. By the way, there’s no wire at all! He doesn’t free stand, unfortunately, but I love how the ties of his coat stick up! (And ofc I crocheted a little Rashomon as well.)
behold. my fucked up little grinch bitch.
he's supposed to eventually be a frog. we'll see.
got a beginners crochet kit for free
gonna try it
I haven't posted in a hot minute but I wanted to kinda show off my babies like a proud momma does
Meet Tako and Lucille
I made Lucille first. She was my first attempt at the octo pattern(which isn't my pattern). I was very limited in yarn and didn't know what the hell to do with her mouth.
Tako(my friend gave me this name lol) came a few days later when my mom surprised me with more yarn. I gave up on the mouth by then lmao but I gave her closed eyes and some blush to add a bit more detail!
now look at THIS GUY I CROCHETED!!! 3 days of work and I have made red guy REAL and MARKETABLE but I am not selling him (too much work/yarn/time to remake him :'))

To the folks who is responding to my silly little poll about how y'all are progressing on projects during this holiday crunch with "I don't make gifts anymore because they are not appreciated", I am so very sorry y'all have had that experience.
I sometimes think we all have.
I no longer paint, because as a teen I spent months on a painting for my sperm donor in yet another attempt to bring out of him the father I always wanted. He promptly began criticizing everything that was wrong. Heartbroken, I took it back on the pretense I was going to "fix" it. Years later, after I finally ended my relationship with him; I burned it in a ritual as a final break from him.
I never painted a picture again. Rarely drew.
Having someone not appreciate your gift or are pointedly indifferent to it will shatter your soul.
To all y'all who have experienced this, I am so very sorry. I give to you my sincerest love and deepest hope that none of us experience that ever again.
Also, I am so proud of y'all for protecting yourselves! It is not worth the pain and anger to go through that shit again. I know some of y'all have that deep-rooted guilt because you have heard "but <insert excuse>" your whole fucking life until it just sits inside you giving your internal bully ammo to hit you with. (Especially true when it comes to family.) Let me assure y'all, it's bullshit and it eventually goes away.
To those who are planning to give handmade gifts, may each and every onr bring the kind of joy that sets your soul alight.
I feel like something that doesnt get talked about enough is how fast fashion is coming to hobbies as well. Sure, you can sew, knit, and crochet something better than youd buy in store, but good luck finding quality materials
Want a fabric that doesnt fray from being gently caressed? Want yarn thats not 100% plastic and splits if you touch it wrong? Good luck finding that if you dont have a genuinely good crafts store near you.
Go on any thread where people are trying to figure out where to buy fabric. 50% of it is people saying big stores are servicable, online stores work, or the like, and the other 50% are talking about how bad the quality is or how the quality of a website dropped because it was bought out
Were running into a problem where fast fashiob is so integrated into society that even the ability to make your own, comfortable and long lasting, clothes is being threatened by capitalism
I kinda figured out crochet! I don't really know what I'm doing but I successfully made three rows so it's not bad.
Update: How the heck do the ends work?
Greetingz, Tumblr. I’ve decided that posting my shit might make me more productive, so get ready to see some shitty cosplay. The convention is in October, and I plan on posting my (very slow) progress once every one or two weeks.
I’ve done this before. Last year my friend, my little sister and I went as characters from SpyxFamily. (The friend was Yor, my sister was Anya, and I was Loid)
I might post the stuff from last year if this gets a little bit of attention.
This year, the plan was to go as members from the League of Villains from MHA. However, my sister is a brat (don’t tell her is said that) and switched to Eri after I spent way too many hours figuring out how to do Shigaraki’s hands. BUT! I shall be going as the gay ass magician we call Mr. Compress, and my friend will be going as Toga.
Note: I will NOT! Be saying any names, ages, or any other personal details. Any of my pieces will be on a mannequin or just on a desk or something, so plz don’t expect any human models.
✨✨~ With that, I bid you ado. ~✨✨

So I've finished it! It's been done for a while now, but... I need some constructive criticism. It also doesn't stand up very well, which I'm wondering would be a bad selling point if I made the pattern.
I think he's cute though, and I don't have the heart to undo all that work lol.
the baby. I must crochet it. but how
fresh batch of spiders up for adoption!
*places a ball of yarn gently on top of the laundry basket*
