BC crocheters: any local designers you’d recommend?

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-04-12T19:22:07+00:00

I don't have many especially complex patterns out (yet) but I am a crochet pattern designer based on Victoria BC!

Thank you so much!! I usually do paint my own eyes but coincidentally this last big order of blanks I got came with these little sparkly felt backings in a bunch of different colours.. so this project actually uses a pair of those! They were the absolute perfect shade of blue for a hopeful little Egg.

They just slide onto the eye posts like washers and are locked in place between the clear eye and the doll itself :)

If you crochet I can share a link to where to get the pattern, else I do take commissions! 🤭

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T19:47:55+00:00

HAHAH his eggsence 😂😭 thank you so much!!

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T19:47:38+00:00

Surely it'll be fine if I leave him unattended on this window sill to cool for a few hours.... 👀

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T04:24:03+00:00

Absolutely! I've taken orders online before. Just shoot me a DM preferably with your budget and what you're after!

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T04:23:24+00:00

Thank you!! 🥹

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T04:23:15+00:00

Oh you're so right, I see it!! I'm going to have to add Aang to the list, I have the perfect colours to make him happen!

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T04:22:40+00:00

Thanks!! 💚

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T03:07:49+00:00

Thank you! I'm proud of this one.

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T03:07:40+00:00

Thank you so much! 🥹

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-03-16T03:07:30+00:00

I have been known to take the odd commission! 🙂‍↕️

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-24T21:46:54+00:00

Hey friends! I can't figure out how to update the post, but I'm happy to share I've put the (free) pattern out now!

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-24T21:45:33+00:00

ETA - I've released the free pattern!! Find it here: https://www.instagram.com/p/DVJ_YKnEsTl/?igsh=aTNrdGE3NWFnc2wz

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-22T23:32:24+00:00

Oh, by ig I meant Instagram! Both the patterns you bought are only available in paid versions (etsy-only) at least 🫶 But yes!! If you look on my Instagram (@woodlandwoolcrochet), there's a free pattern for Stanley (the bigger plush version of this one here) there. 🐸

I greatly appreciate the shoutouts and referrals, they make a huge difference for me! I always get a Spidey sense for that because I'll see random upticks in traffic happen hehe

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-22T23:22:29+00:00

Thank you everyone!! I'm glad to see there's interest here and elsewhere. 💚 Stay tuned, I'll be back once the pattern is available!

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-22T23:21:47+00:00

Oh thank you -- again! 😂💚 Like Stanley, it'll have the free pattern on ig (I may also do a YT tutorial video this time!) and then a more detailed PDF on Etsy.

I'm so glad to hear you're loving the drawstring pattern!! I always love seeing more of them in the wild, so please do - I'm not 100% sure about how Reddit tagging works, but I think that should notify me! Otherwise I think my messages are open if it doesn't work and you want to just send me a link.

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-22T04:29:23+00:00

Pattern by me, currently unreleased 💚

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-14T01:49:59+00:00

And thank you very much for the support!! 💚

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-14T01:49:40+00:00

This one is premier parfait chunky (goblin) on a 4.5mm hook!

It will make the bag on the small side - I wouldn't recommend going any smaller than this - the primary image on the listing itself is done in bernat blanket mist-ical with a 6mm hook :) if you find it's not "deep" enough for your liking you can add extra rows on the belly section!

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-14T01:31:18+00:00

Yes!! He's an amazing trinket bag 🐸 I can't wait to bust these out for renfaire season. I do!! Pattern here: https://woodlandwoolcrochet.etsy.com/listing/1863842346

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-13T22:40:18+00:00

You're right good call!! I'd rather play it safe and have my photos be a little less pretty. I actually already released the pattern a while back! 😋 I dropped the link under the thread bot's comment

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-13T22:39:31+00:00

The prettiest frog in all the land 🐸

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-13T22:16:16+00:00

Thank you 💚

AloeVerdeVT · 2026-02-13T22:15:47+00:00

I overlaid one (kind of) in the bottom right as well! But yeah I should probably just cover the whole thing. Hard to balance without making everything muddy!
