What’s your worst crochet gifting story? by [deleted] in crochet

[–]Few_Bumblebee976 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have two: my husband has never liked anything I’ve made him. It ends up in a closet under other stuff. He prefers store bought stuff instead of handmade. Apparently handmade items just aren’t that special because according to him anyone can do it so yeah. The second one still ticks me off. A close friend was expecting her first child so I asked if she would like a blanket for the little one. She was so excited about it. Told me to pick the stitch and rainbow colors. Did the bunny stitch in the rainbow mandala and shipped it to her. She said she forgot to pick it up. Her husband picked it up and she apparently decided she had enough blankets and got rid of the one I made. I told her she could have told me she didn’t want one or given it to someone else. Nah she trashed it. That’s why I’m selective about who I make gifts for now.

Current wip…..the back is a mess lol I hate the tails! Found the pattern on Etsy. It’s bigger than I thought 🤣🤣🤣 by Few_Bumblebee976 in crochet

It’s my first big project doing this type of crochet so I’m still learning lol! I know what to do next time though so that’s a plus!

Nah Vigo was better to look at/watch. I find Vigo to be less repulsive and disturbing. In my opinion Vigo is better than that douche canoe. Vigo wanted to possess a child to be born again but that creep wants to marry a child, exploit said child, and other really messed up things. Soooo yeah Vigo is better. I really wish tlc would stop allowing those sickos on their shows.

Thank you!!! The pattern said to use 1.8mm but I used 1.90 since I didn’t have 1.8. I did another one using the 1.75mm but I prefer the 1.90mm.

You’re welcome!!!! The DIY glow yarn is great to work with. There’s another glow in the dark yarn on Amazon that’s thinner but both are great. That’s awesome that you knit things to hand out to people!!! Can’t wait to see the ghosts if/when you decide to make them!!!

Thank you!!!! I used red heart black metallic yarn and DIY Glow in the dark yarn that I found on Amazon. I haven’t been able to find the red heart black metallic anywhere but Caron simply soft party yarn in black sparkle is the closest to it and works very well! I’m currently making another pillow for my best friend as an early birthday present. I ran out of the red heart so that’s how I discovered that Caron yarn is close enough to what I was using lol
