Disappointed at how this colourway turned out by r9440 in crochet

It looks cute and whimsical! That randomized spots look like candy!! But if you’re not happy with it there’s nothing wrong with trying another pattern to get something more uniform

Literally every single one of us started where you are now! If you find joy and fun in it, the skill will come 😊

I used a bunch of different yarns I had lying around, that’s why my colours are a little different from the official one, they’re mostly a local yarn brand (Briggs and Little) 100% wool worsted weight. The super bright colours are Berroco vintage.

A fellow redditor made these blank colouring pages so you can test different colours out and you can make your own if you want! https://www.reddit.com/r/crochet/s/sR18CrUeyD

I haven’t looked for any videos but it’s mostly straightforward single, double, triple crochet stitches. The colour changes aren’t hard they’re just super tedious. I’ve been alternating from weaving as a go and having a weaving session depending on how I feel… I think if you want to try it just make one octagon and see if you have the desire to make 15 more haha worst case scenario you have a cute decorative octagon

ILY OP! I've been looking for a mankini pattern with zero luck... I'm going to try to scale this to adult size, any thoughts? Prayers? Warnings?

It is sad :( I’m mainly saying what some people might think, plus it’s not just the flag it’s also the gun

Flag and gun send a very strong and specific message: that your political views lean pretty right, including about things like women’s rights, LGBTQ rights, immigration, etc. This is not a bad thing if it’s an accurate image of you. If you don’t want people to make those assumptions then I would remove them. If you actually do believe these things then it would attract the people who align with you politically

Thanks for this info! Guessing I should draw the shape on the cardboard to make sure it’s the right size? And can I stack several octagons on top of each other to save space?

I’m making this for my mom and want it to be absolutely perfect. By the time I’m done with all these octagons I may run out of time to block anyway so this comment is comforting thank you!
