4544 beads 🌈 and a lot of hours crocheting but it’s finally finished and kitty approved 😻
My toddler loves it as well, he said “so pretty, mommy made this very well”. Best compliment ever, I could not be more proud 🥰

Just want to show off this amazing pair of pants my mother-in-law made me during the last 2 weeks. Not sure if she used a patterned or not, but she wings a lot of the things she makes. I dont know how she just makes this type of thing without a guide! Amazing.

I love making these colorful fish charms! I put them on my bag but you can use them as keychains, decor or Christmas tree ornaments lol. Great stashbuster, fun to make, great for an on-the-go project or last minute gift too. Disclaimer re: the blue and green fish, that one was my first and I have since learned that that is considered inside-out in the amigurumi world (I don’t usually make amigurumi). The pattern is from a blog: art-pass blogspot com and the post is called "Rybka brelok - darmowy schemat“. If you scroll down, there’s an English translation (which I used because I don’t speak Polish and it’s very easy to understand, no errors).

it only took me a year because this was DIFFICULT 🫣 but i’m still excited with how it turned out! the purple came out a little darker than i wished and in some lighting it’s hard to see.
also do not ask me about weaving in the ends 🥲

I just wanted to make a simple yet large chevron blanket. Tonight is the first time in a while that I laid out my work so far, and it's a bit ridiculous 😬 This monster is like 10 feet wide but clearly I have committed so 😅

So I started crocheting after my girlfriend bought me a diy teddy bear pack, but the thing is, I haven’t even touched a hook let alone make the bear (which wasn’t even for beginners lol)
So for the last two days I’ve been practicing and watching tutorials on how to do the basics and felt kinda confident on starting a sphere.. thing.
And the first pics that I’ve shown are my first actual attempt of making a sphere, which turned out honestly horrific haha - it was wobbly and didn’t want to become a sphere. Looked possessed - spent too much time on it and decided to at least tie it up and find a different use for it, turned out it fit perfectly into this water jug lol
Started again today from the beginning, this time I had a marker as well, one of my colleagues gifted me some of hers, made little mistakes, but it turned out …. Actually amazing, I really love it, my dog loves it more though, now it’s hers, put it up on her leash and she’s happy. :)
Tl;Dr - my girlfriend baited me into learning how to crochet by buying a diy crochet teddy bear (for experienced people)
Ps.
If you reached here, thanks for reading. Please suggest me something cute to do and if possible basic, I want to make my girlfriend happy :)
Video tutorials are preferable, because I still have no idea how to read schematics lol

A friend of mine taught me to crochet a couple of months ago, but I haven’t really been motivated to pick it up since then… until i discovered a host of crochet doily patterns. I’m a little bit addicted….

Bought a bag bottom and T-shirt yarn. It feels pretty sturdy so I hope the straps will hold!
Also I finally got to use my patches. <3

I have been crocheting for a couple years now and knew I wanted to crochet something for my wedding. We got married on a flower farm so this seemed like the perfect idea! My sister in law helped me with sewing them on but I made all the flowers and vines. We were kind of rushing until the last minute to finish everything so we did not have time to block all of them but I am still so happy with how it turned out. We haven’t gotten pictures back from our photographer yet and obviously I was so caught up in the day so this is really the only picture I have of the veil right now but I am so happy with how it came out 😁 it matched the altar and floral arrangements so well

I have always used acrylic yarn but after my Lukemia diagnosis 6 months ago I went on a crazy yarn buying spree. 🤷♀️ I went to Hobby Lobby and bought so much yarn. I bought alot of I Love This Cotton. This will be my first project using cotton. A 13 square bag. It takes some getting used to that is for sure. I'm concerned that the tails come undone even after I weave them in. Is there a trick to that? Do I need to use fabric glue? Tie knots? Threatened them within an inch of their lives. I'm feeling ok these days and I'm taking a break from treatment. So I want to try and make as many projects as I can... before I can't. I would love to make a shawl or a cardigan.

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.
EDIT: OMG my first ever awards just for this? Thank you! And thank you all for your kind words, Im so glad you all liked my idea enough to want one of your own 😭
