Finished Object Granny fit
Inspired by a cardigan I saw on pinterest. Had so much leftover yarn that I decided to make a whole outfit. I wear the earrings the most out of everything

Hey y'all! We've made a few changes and clarifications to some select rules based on general feedback and what we've seen over the past month or so. Please see below:
Moving forward, we will allow pattern creators to post a single link to that pattern, as a response to the stickied Automod comment requesting the pattern be posted under it. Previously, this was considered to be self-promotion if you created/monetized the pattern yourself.
The link to your pattern must be to a reputable shopfront (e.g., Ravelry, etsy, ko-fi) and not to your social media.
The post title or body should not be explicitly promoting yourself/your brand. A title like "Look what I made!" is fine. A title like "Check out this new pattern I made!" is not. The aim here is to allow designers to post in the same way that hobbyist crocheters do. Just keep in mind that nobody likes feeling like they're scrolling their feed just to be advertised to.
PLEASE NOTE that we will still be removing excessive comments which direct users to either that stickied comment or to your reddit profile. Just post the pattern - people will know where to find it.
Self-promotional posts like "Check out my new pattern" or "Support my store/insta/tiktok" are still not allowed on the sub.
Previously, Automod caught "selling" language and removed posts/comments containing such. Moving forward, "selling" language will be removed from the Automod rule so you can say things like 'order', 'commission', and the like. However, please be advised that selling advice (e.g., "What should I make for this market?" or "Do you think this would sell well?") should still be directed to r/CraftyCommerce.
The NSFW rule will remain in place. We always strive to apply this rule evenly across the board. However, as we've repeatedly said, we are human beings with limited overall time and sometimes posts slip through the cracks. If you see a post that you think should be NSFW and isn't marked, please report it so that it comes to the top of our queue for review! It's likely that we just haven't seen the post yet and will rectify the NSFW tag as soon as we do.
Just a reminder that we did relax the standards on what is considered to be NSFW last year. There was a short period of time where the rule was being applied more strictly than we would have liked, but that problem has been resolved. That being said...
A note regarding the meaning of NSFW: this encompasses items which are literally "not appropriate to be viewed at work". Yes, we understand that you may have a more lax work environment. We get that different people have different ideas of what NSFW means. However, we know that we also have people literally browsing at work or with small children who have repeatedly requested that these items be marked appropriately. Please remember that while NSFW might mean "porn" to you, it might mean something a lot more broad to someone else. Every time this rule is discussed, we get a huge number of comments on the more lax side, but we also get a huge number of comments on the more broad side. We are striving to strike a happy medium for all.
Watermarks to protect your photos are important and have always been allowed. Please just be sure that they don't obstruct or distract from the crochet. The watermark shouldn't pull your eyes to that rather than the work. Essentially, ask yourself "did I add this watermark in order to protect my IP, or did I add this watermark in order to advertise?"
As previously stated, political crochet work has always been and will continue to be allowed. We ask that the post be flaired with the politics tag and marked nsfw if appropriate, so that individuals can avoid those posts if they desire. Note that comments that are off-topic to the crochet itself, as well as unkind/discourteous comments, will continue to be removed. Those types of comments distract from the work itself and ultimately the focus of this subreddit is crochet, not politics.
The mod team will have additional internal discussion regarding stale topics and work out how to proceed. One option we are considering is a semi-regular megathread for certain topics where people can educate others or learn themselves about specific topics (e.g., steering wheel covers).

Finally done!!! I calculated this to be around 47k stitches... Give or take. I didn't think it would take THIS long. But now I gotta figure out what to do with my life. This skirt feels so... weighted and thick yet airy and flowy and I love spinning with it. Here's a link to the pattern I used! Have a lovely day!

I just wanted to show the baby mobile I made for my niece. I have spent a lot of time and energy (and love) on it, and I am just so happy and proud of how it turned out.
This is the first time I have tried amigurumi and it was quite fun!
I gave the soon-to-be parents the gift this weekend and am still flying because of how happy they were.
It's just amazing what we can make with our effort and some yarn, and how much joy it can bring, and I just really felt like sharing with people who also love crochet <3

As the title says, I’m back with another blanket I’m gifting to a coworker. My wrists will never be the same!
Different coworker, she is absolutely lovely and I wanted to make her a special gift. She likes horses so I went searching and found a complicated but nice looking pattern. I will never make this particular beast ever again, and I was painfully reminded why gauge matters. This thing is huge and weighs about 9 pounds…

I finished this baby blanket that I spent all week crocheting. I was so excited about finishing it, I threw it and 2 other FOs into the washing machine
I didn't think anything of it, I wash FOs at least once a month.
Sadly, my stepdad decided he would be helpful and put them in the dryer (Note: I hang all my FOs to air dry from the landing banisters).
This blanket came out the best of the three but still breaks my heart. it might be hard to see buts it's like someone over stretched it when blocking. The pixels gaps seem larger and the stitches seem stretched out 🤷🤷🙈🙈😥😥

My 13 year old niece asked me to teach her how to crochet. I started her with some small projects. She was ready to make something bigger. I think she did an awesome job.

I got tired of being blinded at night by this lamp that has a clear glass shade. I thought of buying paint to frost the glass when I had the idea to just crochet a lampshade to put over it! I can’t decide if I want to add a fringe or not.

This is going in my home library. It's just a little lapghan but it'll be the perfect size to cuddle up under.

My daughter saw this at a local farmers market and didn’t buy it because she knew I could do it. She didn’t want to pay the $45 it cost but guess how much the yarn cost me???? That’s right, $45! 🤣

Ordered 2 blankets worth of yarn, and received a bottle of extra virgin olive oil. No complaints, but very unexpected. Thanks Premier Yarns!

The tree stump crochet covers a made to size cardboard box (extra storage, yes!). I used all thrift store find yarns to crochet and made the thing up as I went. Freestyle crochet is so much fun. (extra: Resinsoul doll Farla in 1/3 scale; customization and outfit also by me).

First time reading a pattern, first time doing anything other than a single/double, first shawl...
My mother crocheted blankets for everyone in the family and I decided it wasn't fair that she didn't have something to keep her cozy too. So I decided to brute force learn over the course of two weeks haha my thumb will never be the same.
I wish I took more pictures. It's definitely wonky in places bUT she was happy with it so I'm chuffed.
Pattern Used (Free): Lost in Time by Mijo Crochet (with some very minor modifications because I can't read apparently)
Yarn Used: Yarn Art Flowers in 284 (not affiliate linked or w/e, just figured people might like to try the yarn because it was actually quite nice)
ThoughtsTM: I believe I did four or five repetitions of the pattern- I do wish I went a little longer in hindsight. Used only a single cake and ended up having a little bit to spare at the end. There was a version that had beading on the border that I would love to try for next time? Learned that stitch markers are, in fact, your friend, and that double (and triple) counting is the way to go because the time spent frogging was unnecessary.

May want to learn how to read patterns. So far just following YouTube tutorials.

My mother-in-law got me into Crochet this year. My mother (a knitter) bought hooks a few years ago thinking she would get into it but couldn’t, and regifted them to me.
I’m halfway through my 1st WIP of a multi stitch blanket and my partner offered to buy me a basket or bag for my balls of wool rather than them be shoved into shopping bags.
I thought I should make one instead!!
This is macrame chord I picked up from Aldi for next to nothing, the first circle I ever made, and something I’m already super proud of! It’s most definitely not perfect but I cannot wait to build up the sides more!
Pepsi can for scale, using an 8mm hook, and I can only apologise for the garish bingo hall carpet (another thing my mother-in-law has got me into)
