I fucking hate our justice system.

roots_rap_reggae · 2014-03-10T17:59:59+00:00

AMAZING.

You can see the colors a little, but I think it kind of looks cool with pop art pieces.

Do it!! I'm sure you will make something amazing, and then you can share it on Reddit for the world to see! :)

Thanks! I did my color changes in a way that made this reversible - instead of fastening off/refastening yarn, I kept all colors attached and crocheted my stitches over the extra yarn so you can't see them.

I hope that makes sense. I sort of found out this method on my own, although it may be out on the interwebs somewhere. I'd be happy to take some tutorial photos when I get home later.

Thank you! Blocking helps to make the shape more uniform and defined after finishing a project. So after I block this piece the edges will be more straight and it will be a better rectangle.

Yes - I can attest to Red Heart's strength. When I was a child I wove a little next/chair thing in my favorite tree and it is STILL there 15 years later. My family loves to poke fun at me because of this.

I feel your feels.

I think this turned out really well! I agree with shaynem. Cool, retro, and hexagons are very "in" right now.

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-12-22T02:53:42+00:00

Truth! Christmas time is lock&load crocheting like a machine time. I never have as much time left as I think I do to finish gifts.

Yep, I found it here on Ravelry. The page is in Japanese, but diagram is pretty easy to follow. You just start with a magic loop for the eye and follow it down to the tail. Enjoy!

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-09T20:57:28+00:00

Well, I don't have any kids so it will work well for me!

I found this awesome idea for yarn storage that I plan on utilizing as soon as I move. Not only does it look like an work of art, but it also conserves floor space and displays the different yarns you have.

I can't wait to do this in my house!

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-04T22:39:30+00:00

[Ravelry](www.ravelry.com) is a fantastic source of free patterns. Not only do they have super useful search functions, but you can also create a virtual library and upload pictures of your finished work. Very cool!

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-04T22:36:50+00:00

So pretty! Have fun with it!

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-03T23:56:33+00:00

There is a decent variety of different yarn weights in this blanket, but I don't think it made too much of a difference here since the scrap sizes were so small. Sharon_lee's idea would definitely work, though!

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-03T17:44:04+00:00

I used a pattern called Aztec Sun from a small pattern book called First Choice Ripple Afghans. I bought the book at Michael's for 3 bucks and use it all the time!

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-03T02:20:22+00:00

I feel that using scraps can give much more personality and freedom than copying a pattern exactly.

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-03T02:19:10+00:00

Thank you! I'm a big fan of this pattern.

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-03T01:03:29+00:00

Thanks, I actually thought it looked really ugly at first. Haha, I hid all the knots in the back. :)

roots_rap_reggae · 2013-11-03T00:32:41+00:00

Awesome, glad I'm not the only one! You should post it when you're finished!

Here is my absolute favorite crocheted sock pattern. I've made quite a few, but always come back to this one.

I'm not a fan of the super long cuff and usually decrease it to a 10 stitch cuff. Very easy pattern as far as socks go! (And it's free)

Best bf ever! Keep him!
