r/kroshay

Guysss sorry if this has already been posted but this is riDUCKulous! Found this on Etsy! Someone had left a review saying it wasn’t even a real pattern just some instructions to make a pattern using a colouring sheet!

I just hate watched several videos from this account, here is a screen recording so you don’t have to. Yes, people still asked for a pattern in the comments.

Welp, I know what app I will not be downloading for crochet 🫣😅

I came across this crochet cardigan through a YouTube Shorts ad and something about it feels really off.

The videos, product photos, and even the reviews all look possibly AI-generated to me. Some of the crochet details/stitches don’t even look physically possible when you zoom in 😭

The website (zoeycrochet.com) also seems super new and I can barely find any real people talking about ordering from them outside their own pages.

Has anyone here actually bought from Zoey Crochet or seen these products in real life? Because this honestly feels like one of those AI-generated crochet stores that are starting to pop up online lately.

I found this fun little turtle on Pinterest last night. The more I looked at it, the worse it was. I’m still trying to find where I can find yern or tart, let alone how to ween in the ends.

My significant other bought on Amazon a crochet book, based on the nice pics on the cover, which might be of real works. There was no preview of the content.

Disappointment when received: these works were not in the book, which was a bad gray-scale-scan-then-dithered-again reproduction of an old book, of outdated designs. And the "Summary" (introduction?) had text making no doubt it was IA generated, with sentences like "This response was truncated by the cut-off limit (max tokens). Open the viewbar, Increase the parameter in the settings and then regenerate". Not to mention the first paragraphs talking about a fiction book, nothing to do with this crochet book. People making these book doesn't even care to read back what was generated!

Amazon paid back the book, not even asking to send it back. It ended in the recycle bin.

This site was sharing tips for crochet and all the images were clearly ai and then i got to this pic claiming to be before and after blocking!! Magically added stitches and a whole nother color! Blocking truly is a miracle 😭😂

I don't knit, so for all I know, this is correct. /s

Almost scrolled past but then realized it was off. Thats not how crochet circles work.

Also gran had been kroshaying for so long her fingers are now transformed into a kroshay hook!
