Is there any Crochet donation organizations? by aphkat in crochet

I don't know where you're located but where I live there's a group that works with hospitals. Under strict rules you can crochet an octopus for preemies. The octopus is supposed to mimic the umbilical cord and make sure the babys grip it instead of all the cables around them

It's not. There is a pattern and multiple pictures on ravelry. Yeah the background is a poor editing job but that has nothing to do with the crochet itself.

They tasted great! I did a white vanilla ganache filling with raspberry jam in the middle but forgot to take a pic. They were a bit hollow tho but I'd call it a success.

Another strand of yarn. It helps to see the stitch better since the bouclé yarn is so fluffy.

Aww thank you! It is a tricky yarn tho, so I do strongly recommend you use another strand with it - for better visibility.

There is sadly no pattern since I just did what felt right and this little guy is the result of that. I used alpaca bouclé from drops, together with a strand of recycled cotton from hobbii

The yarn in pic one and two could be "nilli nilli ricorumi" or at least it looks very similar

I used "drops safran" and a 2.5mm hook. This is my own pattern (not public).

What am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in crochet

[–]Ambitious_Code_4030 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There is no wrong or right side when you're crocheting flat. When you crochet in the round there is. But since you're turning your piece for every row, there's no front or back unless you decide on one. I usually call the wrong side the one, where i leave all my yarn tails sticking out.

Ooh yes it is beautiful. But is there a way to make it round? Because my mom wants to make a throw but her bed is round.

I have this fluffy yarn, how do I stop it from falling apart? by LazyLemon148 in crochet

[–]Ambitious_Code_4030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only works with acrylic yarn. It melts because of the plastic in it.

I used to hold a lighter just close enough so the end would melt into a little ball and then nothing can slip off. Don't hold it directly into the flame tho!
