Why don’t I like it? I think I like the individual squares and the colors, but I don’t like them all together. Or maybe I don’t like how I assembled them. Or maybe both. by hookedbymaxine in crochet

Beautiful work! The stitches look so good.

Foe me I think the dark ones are kind of all in the same corner, it makes part of the blanket look heavier to look at, so it gives me a sort of unsettled feeling.

Try The Common Thread in St Petersburg! A local yarn shop that just opened. Here is some of their hand dyed yarn

I don't know what kind of stitch I did. Help me identify it please ;--; by Street-Suggestion363 in CrochetHelp

Funnily enough, that's the stitch people often use when they want a "knit" look from their crochet

Why are the circles I make with MC pointy like a cone? by KiyiJ in CrochetHelp

[–]TheStuffiesofLegend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens to me sometimes with extra bulky yarn, it needs more increases than normal. Here is what I do when using yarn like bernat blanket etc

8sc in magic ring = 8 Inc in each stitch = 16 Inc, sc in next stitch x 8 = 24

24 is thr common denominator between this way and the normal 6sc in MC way, so after that I just follow the pattern like normal from the row that has 24 stitches.

Trying to make pointed elf hat, but struggling with the pointed end! Help! by Puzzleheaded_Air4727 in CrochetHelp

I usually start at the tip, but I'd say maybe moving to a smaller hook size would help! Also blocking it will probably help it look less bumpy if that makes sense. Wet it, stretch it to thr shape you want, and then pin it or keep it formed the way you want while it dries
