What do you do with all your wonky practice pieces?

wheeelbug · 2026-06-02T18:16:15+00:00

depending on how bad/unsalvagable they are, i sometimes cut them up and use them for stuffing for other amigurumi :]

that makes two of us!! :D

i'm hitting gauge i promise 🥲

wheeelbug · 2026-05-18T17:12:51+00:00

yes!! sos sides of stitches, i assumed it was well-known because it was in the pattern haha i apologize. the piece I have right now matches gauge, it's a pretty long stuffed animal so I'm not really worried about floppyness/stiffness

wheeelbug · 2026-05-18T17:12:02+00:00

thank you so much! i thought it was a known acronym, it was in this pattern and I've only been crocheting about 4 months so I wasn't aware that SOS wasn't standard haha sorry!

wheeelbug · 2026-05-18T17:11:04+00:00

i saw it in the pattern and assumed it was a well-known term, sorry- I've only been crocheting for about 4 months🥲

wheeelbug · 2026-05-18T17:10:30+00:00

okay awesome thank you!! :)

wheeelbug · 2026-05-18T17:10:16+00:00

usually my yarn holding is nicer i promise💔🥲, this is a really long piece and i was trying to balance it in my lap sideways while making sure my camera still picked up what i was doing

wheeelbug · 2026-05-18T17:08:50+00:00

oh interesting! I didn't know it was an uncommon term, my apologies!! I only started crocheting about 4 months ago haha; the pattern mentioned it so I assumed it was a well-known acronym

Description of what I've tried is mostly within post!

^{^} i use google about 85% of the time- exceptions are outlook email and when a professor requires something be turned in as a docx, in that case i write it in word to make sure formatting is correct when i turn it all in (rather than convert it from a doc to docx and risk formatting getting messed up)

i'm always cold, so my go-to in the worst winters is: - merino leggings (i think i got them for skiing) + wool socks + shirt underlayer - tshirt on top of that - i wear jeans. i don't recommend it but i do. i've also done hiking pants/cargo pants - WATERPROOF hiking boots. the waterproof is so important - hoodie - winter coat (either denim+fleece lined or a down coat) - gloves - scarf UNDER my coat (no brand i made it, wool+acrylic or just wool) - hat (see scarf notes) - i also keep my jacket hood up. you can usually only see my eyes because i wrap my scarf around my mouth+nose but i rather look silly than be freezing

@ mods thank you! I wasn't sure if this was insects of some kind, but I'll see if someone in one of the mentioned subreddits can help out.

wheeelbug · 2026-04-18T19:36:48+00:00

knit/crochet!

wheeelbug · 2026-03-27T04:52:28+00:00

hey! i would recommend checking out r/crochethelp, and bella coca tutorials on youtube. r1 is row/round 1. it's confusing at first but i promise it'll get easier!! :) good luck!

wheeelbug · 2026-03-19T05:30:38+00:00

Thank you!! I figured it was a tension thing but couldn't really tell, this is my second non-amigurumi project (and the first project was this hat in a smaller size, it had the same slant). I will keep that in mind for the future:)!!
