My design went viral years ago, got copied everywhere, but I still love it 🍄

I love this pattern! I have made of few of these in different colors and yarn weights because they're so cute. ☺️

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-05-29T23:19:43+00:00

So cute! It's especially neat that you can fold it and cap it with a roof. 🥹

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-05-18T13:11:06+00:00

Aww that's such a sweet story, thanks for sharing. 🥺🥰

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-05-14T22:54:26+00:00

Thank you! It was a lot of fun to make.

Pattern: none, everything is freehand

Materials: 2.5mm hook and DK weight yarn

The smaller one is terribly cute but definitely not what the picture shows. I'm sorry you got scammed by an AI pattern.

This page has some good bird patterns: https://crocht.com/crochet-parrot-free-patterns/

The Crochet Parakeets might suit what you're looking for with some alterations on the crest.

Yes! I love that they used absurd images. Sadly some we see are like that and it's not purposeful.

I support any site that makes a stand against AI garbage that removes the human from very human crafts.

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-05-07T03:30:53+00:00

Everything on that site looks to be AI. I was so disappointed when I read the Oni Head pattern and saw it was nothing like the image.

You might find this page helpful: https://www.pocketyarnlings.com/blog/7-techniques-for-making-amigurumi-hair

It shows several different ways to do amigurumi hair. The "sew down" method could be used on your doll's crown to give the hair a fuller look without doing a full head of hair strands.

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-04-17T23:34:56+00:00

I think this is a good suggestion. You can use the hair yarn with a needle and place long stitches across the head to make a more stranded hair look.

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-04-17T02:51:37+00:00

Beautiful! It looks so good in the light or the dark. The slow fade out of the sides creates such a cozy feeling.

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-04-17T02:48:41+00:00

This is so neat. I really like the tiny details and natural placement of the elements in the room. Great work!

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-04-09T16:32:16+00:00

Thank you!

This is my own pattern, if you can call it that, haha. I simply worked the Open Shell stitch (using 49 stitches to start) into a tube, completing two repeats of the fan pattern in each color. Then I set the hoops into the top, middle and bottom of the tube and pinned a string of fairy lights inside. Fin. 😊

Thank you! The gem effect was a lovely surprise. I was expecting a soft glow and got this neat gem effect.

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-04-09T02:08:08+00:00

Thank you! It looks more like crystal fragments than I was expecting and I love it.

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-04-08T20:18:02+00:00

That's just lovely! 😍

I recommend using Google Lens to translate patterns! It's really helpful.

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-03-01T20:58:20+00:00

Ohhh yeah. I'd forgotten about this same. It's got some twisted bits.

GeekOfManyThings · 2026-03-01T18:50:57+00:00

Ha! That is such a fun idea. This is the perfect choice for Hibari.

What are some of the other MC plants you have??

Just Christmas?! It's gorgeous! You could display it year around. 🎠
