I've accidentally made dtr instead of tr (tr instead of dc for US) in every centre and every fan of all 16 octagons in the Persian tiles blanket. I made them conveyer belt style and I had already finished round 9 on all of them before I continued on this one and noticed my mistake..

I am not going to frog them all, but it will bug me forever and ever. Just needed to tell someone who would understand.

I have not crocheted seriously since 2024 at this point, but my twin really wanted a blanket so here we are, and I still got it! Her dog loves it too, and that’s really the most important part.

Maybe I’ll find it in myself to block the border someday, but for now I’m tired cause I worked on this thing for three weeks straight.

Lil sweater vest for my tween child, which hopefully they wear 😅

It’s going to be Goofy but he didn’t have his muzzle yet. Nightmare fuel lol

This is my rag bag, where rags who are allowed to do all cleaning duties live. I dont have to think about folding them, i dont have to think about what they are cleaning up and if im willing to use them for their intended purpose again, I don’t have to keep track of how many I have, if they are too gross to wash I can throw them away, BUT I don’t have the overuse/money issues of papertowels on my mind all the time. I do still occasionally use paper towels to mop up messes and little things. But im less concerned about my use.

I went on pinterest, found a crochet “plastic bag holder” pattern I liked. Bought a pack of 50, 100% cotton shop rags from harbor freight. Hung it VISIBLY in my kitchen. and made a cinch top, so all I have to do is stuff the rags in when they are clean.
This has genuinely lifted a cleaning weight off my shoulders and I love it.

I feel like dish scrubbies are great for newbies learning crochet, but I don't see that many pics on Reddit. Are they not very popular worldwide?

The body is just a basic hexagon cardigan, with freehanded granny squares to look like bluey and bingo as pockets. I also added xl buttons so my kiddo can do it up himself. He loves it and I'm pretty proud of how this turned out!

It’s the virus shawl and it’s in Black Friday cotton yarn in shade 06 held with Hobbii’s pink glitter thread, with a 3.5mm hook :)

After four years of working on and off this granny square blanket, I am finally finished!! Decided to share the update to my friends. They suggested I should submit it to our state fair that so happens to be taking submissions this weekend. Wish me luck!!

Her name is Willow, she’s a bit stiff but I’m really happy with her!

The pattern I used is “Knotsandsnugglesco” floppy bunny pattern on Etsy if anyone is interested.

This took a while and is the hardest thing I've made so far. Pattern from Megan Lapp's book crochet creatures of myth and legend. I'm happy with it and I learnt a lot.

I'm now keen to give it to a friend as they start a 'transformation' of selling their house.

I made her using a free doll pattern as a guide but I free handed the petticoat shoes and hat also had to change the stitch counts for the arms and legs to make them possible in this scale. Wish her face was a bit better but I'm very pleased with her really. Made with a 0.4 mm hook
