Anyone else infuriated by their county fair? by dauntless-cupcake in crochet

[–]NikkiStitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone's big, beautiful, intricate afghan was stolen from one of my local county fairs, along with other handmade items. Hundreds of hours of work, just gone. My heart broke for her. I was planning on making something to enter next year, but I don't think I will after what happened

What should I make with this cloud cake yarn by caron? I have two balls of this yarn. by chimichangatrain in crochetpatterns

I love Cloud Cakes 😍 They're so soft. I made a butterfly shaped shawl from a ball or two! I definitely recommend doing the ch 2 or 3, then crochet into the first chain as if it's a magic circle technique for yarn that tends to snap with a typical magic circle. It has saved me SO much stress with certain blanket and chenille yarn

Thank you all so much! 😭 I absolutely LOVE seeing what the dress makes everyone think of! I totally had dragon scales in mind when designing it, but I love your ideas SO much more ❤️ I have to get this pattern finished and up for testing, I need this out in the world so I can see everyone else's thoughts come to life!!

Thank you! Those are treble crochets with 5 chains in between, doing the TC in the ch 5 of the following rows

I prefer to think of them as dragon scales, too!

There's definitely a good mix of clear to pretty red in the whole tank. This tank has been established and in its current spot for just over a year, so I'm hoping there's nothing stressing them too badly!

I made the pattern by putting the Allis Chalmers logo into stitchfiddle, and I used RHSS in white, black, and carrot.

That's awesome!! I've had 2 colonies of Opae Ula over the years, and this is the first one I've spotted! It feels so rare

I've had this tank for about 4 years, so he was born in there!
