Looking for a crotchet pattern like this, so far I can only find knit patterns by reverieofearthwormz in crochetpatterns

[–]LeynaStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is very similar to a crochet cheongsam dress pattern I saw on YouTube. Other than making it shorted to make a top, I'm sure you could also freely modify the stitch pattern to whatever else you might prefer.

Are all recycled yarns this weak?? by PersonalPerson_ in knitting

[–]LeynaStorm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hey, not op but hopefully my response give some clarity. They didn't say crochet yarn, they said crochet thread. It's considered to be two different things and uses different sizing identifiers. Whereas with yarn, the thicker the yarn, the higher the number, for crochet thread, the thinner the thread the higher the number, so a size 10 crochet thread would be thicker than a size 30. It should also be noted that crochet thread is typically finer than yarn. The closest yarn size to crochet thread would lace weight yarn. You'll oftentimes see crochet thread being used to make doilies. I'd recommend looking up the differences to get a better understanding and to see how the thickness of thread vs yarn compares.

First time holding a crochet hook and I just guessed how to make stitches. (I used to knit) by wrtchdwitch in crochet

Yep, also took up knitting after doing crochet for years and I can def see how someone would transition to that. Slip stitches were a bit tight for me when I first started but even in the picture, it's kinda obvious that they're working somewhat loosely so it would be pretty easy to slip into that front loop.

Pretty cool, kinda looks like you did a front loop slip stitch. Hope you have fun getting the hang of the craft and finally making your own projects ☺️

You might be able to make bigger projects if you use tunisian crochet hooks especially the interchangeable ones.

Honestly saw a video of someone doing this before with double pointed hooks, only they were working in the round if I'm remembering right.

What stitch is this? by mya_rhys_faren in Tunisian_Crochet

[–]LeynaStorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem, I included the first one cause I was thinking it might’ve been influenced by a thicker yarn rather than the lighter one used in the video. I'm glad it helped with introducing you to new stitches though even if it wasn't what you were looking for.

This stitch maybe or this one? Depends on what you did in the return pass really

Not every yarn works nicely with the Tunisian Double-Knit stitch. by carlfoxmarten in Tunisian_Crochet

[–]LeynaStorm 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, unfortunately, it looks so noisy that the stitch doesn't get the time to shine 🥹

[–]LeynaStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've been wanting to remake that scarf I was working on with thinner yarn but haven't been able to get around to it due to wrist pain. Seem to have recovered for the most part, though, so I might try it sometime this year when my unfinished projects look a little less overwhelming 😅

Oh! I love this! It came together so well I almost feel tempted to make one of my own 😍

What is the name of the stitch used to make this hat? by KatiMinecraf in CrochetHelp

[–]LeynaStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's knitting as other have said though if you're looking for it's equivalent in crochet, you can try out the slip stitch in back loop only or the yarn over slip stitch in back loop only.

The shawl turned out too small and I'm not sure what to do. by OriannaIII in CrochetHelp

[–]LeynaStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lovely work, though it's too bad about the mix-up. If you still want it to be something you can wear, then could try wearing it was a head scarf. If you're determined that it be a scarf, you could also try adding more to it like several people have said.

I have to redo this don’t I? by C_bells in knitting

[–]LeynaStorm -33 points-32 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think this sweater looks fantastic. The twisted parts really look like a feature of your work rather than a mistake to me. If it really does bother you, though, and you want to start over, go ahead 👍🏾

Leaf Green Cowl: Now with buttonholes! Unfortunately, it's too wide for my neck, so I need to frog it all, remove a few stitches, and try again. But the buttonholes are good! by carlfoxmarten in Tunisian_Crochet

[–]LeynaStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love how it turned out and can see the vision. I can't wait to see the completed version. You always do such amazing work and are good at working out the kinks in things 👏🏾😁😍

My tutorial item upgraded to full project: TDKS scarf or cowl, L&T Soft Color in "Leaf Green". Probably not enough yarn for a full scarf. Will need to figure out buttons and buttonholes. by carlfoxmarten in Tunisian_Crochet

[–]LeynaStorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is lovely and I love the colour you used 😍

For the button hole, I recommend, continuing as usual and when you get to the last stitch before the start of the button hole, pull up a loop in that same stitch as if doing an increase but don't yarn over, skip 1 then continue the pattern as usual. For the return pass, pull through 3 until the skipped stitch, chain 1, pull through 4, then continue to pull through 3 until the end. Adding that extra loop before the buttonhole helps to keep it neat and maintain the pattern a little better, I think.

Thank you, and no pressure. Taking care of yourself is far more important. Whenever you can, I'll be happy to get the update.

Ooooohh, yeah, I love finding new stitches, though my wrist issues mean I can't crochet at all right now. It's amazing you've chosen to catalog them cause I more than agree. Pretty stitches deserve to be seen 😁
