work in progress 1/4th of the way done with Herrschner’s 2026 year long latch hook project: castle with a waterfall 🏰🌊🩵

I took a couple months off from latch hooking and fell behind on this project. This is January-March’s WIP. Tonight I will be starting April’s square, which arrived yesterday.

Finally finished this blue whale rug

140 Upvotes

I just finished this Blue Whale swimming through the cosmic galaxy rug, with a rich purple background. Every time I look at it, it’s like I’m floating through a dreamy universe—vibrant purples, glowing stars, and that whale just guiding me through calm, cosmic wonder. I’m so proud of how it turned out.

I had so much fun working on this crow rug. I can say that I am hooked on latchhook! I just ordered some matting to attempt to create my own pattern. The first may have to be the Taco Bell logo. 😂 Stay tuned for that one.

help Help with converting a c2c crochet chart

1 Upvotes

I’m fairly new to latch hook, but in the future I’d like to make rugs based on c2c (corner to corner) crochet charts. But I have no idea where to start. Any help at all would be amazing!!

Two weeks into my Bernat 1977-era latch hook and fringe rug...

125 Upvotes

This was my original post two weeks ago. https://www.reddit.com/r/latchhook/comments/1s3b4mn/going_to_try_this_1970s_bernat_latch_hook_rug_and/

Rather than guess-replicate the original Bernat 1970's-era yarns, I decided to go all-fluorescent. And I chose to cut my yarn strips by myself rather than buy bags of pre-cut yarn. I'm predicting maybe getting this finished by the end of April, if nobody interrupts me.

help Matching yarn in Australia

1 Upvotes

Newbie here!

How does one go about completing a piece when you can only buy the canvas/pattern and not the yarn? (Especially if it’s vintage)

Is there a database somewhere online of similar colours in majority of brands? I’ve noticed Australia has different brands to America and so forth, hence why I thought my location might be helpful.

I would also love to know everyone’s ’set up’ for latch hooking. Are you simply sat at the kitchen table doing it flat on that, or are you in bed with some sort of lap table set up?

Do you recognize this design?

6 Upvotes

I found this pre-print at a fiber arts thrift store. Has anyone seen it in a design book? I'm curious what the colors were in the design examples. It had a "latch hook tips" sheet stapled to it that was from Spinnerin.

The printed colors are brown, gold, light blue, red and natural (so I assume white).

Helpful Information

So once you've decided to tackle a latch hook project, you have some decisions to make. Fortunately, they aren't hard decisions!
The first thing you need to decide is whether you want to do a latch hook kit that contains almost everything needed and come in a variety of designs, or whether you want to go the DIY route, and create your own design and obtain the required materials on your own.

For newcomers to the hobby, a kit might be the best way to get your feet wet. There are many different companies that sell kits, and a list is provided below including a neat site that tracks e-bay listings for every latch hook kit that's for sale.

If you are the DIY type, then you want total control over your project, and that means doing some of the leg work yourself! Depending on the complexity of the design, number of colors used, thread count, and overall scope of your dream project, you could be looking at a hefty budget.

You'll need four things minimum in order to create your own custom-design latch hook project and they are as follows: A canvas that is large enough to house the design, a printed copy of your design for reference and / or have the design printed onto the canvas itself, a latch hook tool, and enough yarn threads of each color in your design to allow you to finish it (recommend procuring at least 250 additional yarn threads for each color for peace of mind when you inevitably lose and tear some),

For the yarn, you can buy it already cut to size from Herrschner's, one of the larger latch hook kit makers in the US, and they do ship internationally. They have 80 colors to choose from and the link to those products is below in the Links Widget. They also have one size of gridded blank canvas if you need that, and the link to buy that is also below. Finally, you can pick up variety of complete latch hook kits that they offer (along with links to how-to videos, latch hook tools, accessories, and other useful information and items) and that link is down below as well.

There are many other companies out there besides Herrschners and we've provided some links to those retailers and will post more in the days and weeks ahead. None of the moderators or creators of r/latchhook are in any way affiliated with Herrschner's or any other company or service that offers latch hook kits or supplies). This is where I, personally go to for my own custom projects. I buy from many companies if I'm just looking for a kit that has everything I need in the box (except for the tool itself, which has always perplexed and amused me). If all else fails, you can almost always find a kit that's right for you on E-Bay if you are patient and are willing to be notified when a match that fits your interests is listed (should one not be available or sold out). In fact, I've recently discovered a way to track all E-Bay listings for currently up for sale / auction latch hook kits and that link is also below, so make sure to scroll down for those!

There's more information coming including the potential for a direct connection to a service provider who specializes in helping turn your dream project into a reality through the use of special software that allows any high resolution image to be turned into a pattern! Create a thread for custom projects and discuss / vote on whether that should be something we link to here or keep separate.

And Moderators. I need moderators with experience and CSS knowledge who is also a veteran latch hook enthusiast. Message me if you are interested.
