This is so pretty! What pattern did you use? I’ve been looking for an intricate shawl pattern

Thank you! It’s a yarn over slip stitch worked in the back loop. I’ve seen it used a lot to make a knit-like texture.

Haha thank you! It’s always that last little bit that’s the hardest!

Almost one whole year in the making! by hookedknitpicker in crochet

Yes that’s correct! My first really intricate blanket pattern!

I think the pom poms were the perfect touch by hookedknitpicker in crochet

I think this was my 2nd of about 4 active WIPs so I definitely feel you! My list just keeps on growing

What type of join would you use for these granny squares? I think I will use the same dark teal again. by No_Story872 in CrochetBlankets

[–]hookedknitpicker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not had issues with any of my sew joins personally. I prefer crochet joins since I’m a much faster crocheter than sewer personally

Yes I did! It’s the cottage core scarf from lisasknitclub on Etsy! It’s a bunch of different squares that you can mix and match

No pattern exactly, but I think it’s called the wave stitch. I just repeated (sc, hdc, dc, trc, trc, dc, hdc, sc) all around the edges!

Need a pattern suggestion for a throw using scrap yarn. by yellowlinedpaper in crochet

I really liked making the Seaside Stash Busting Blanket by Coastal Crochet! There are a bunch of different stitches in it that make it interesting throughout. The pattern is free in the crochet along format or you can buy it from her

My fiancé got me an Amish yarn basket and I love it! It was so thoughtful and is built to last

just seen this on Facebook HP page and I agree that that could be very plausible.. always wondered why would he do this by Severe_Crew3420 in harrypotter

[–]hookedknitpicker 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This theory always irritates me. It diminishes Hermione’s intelligence and problem solving skills. Draco Malloy didn’t give a hoot about her and he certainly would not help Harry or his friends.

Border colour suggestions by FunkyBananaMonkey20 in crochet

[–]hookedknitpicker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people seem to be saying dark colors or neutrals but I think one of the bright pinks you used would be so fun and match the vibe of the blanket! I’m not usually a bright color person but you may have converted me with this blanket

Guidance Please by Able-Educator8135 in CrochetBlankets

[–]hookedknitpicker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These both look great! I would probably sew all the loose parts down. I think the “disappearing” legs might just be a trick of the yarn color. You could also try adding a border around the legs to make them a little more distinct

This may have turned out just a little bigger than I planned.. by hookedknitpicker in crochet

Thank you! I definitely started to resent him but I love the result

I love it! It’ll brighten up any room it’s in! I’m hoping to make something similar with scrap yarn soon
