crochet

i started learning how to crochet in the summer of 2024. these are some of my finished objects!


hover over each image for more info about it, and click for the pattern (unless i freehanded/designed it myself)


i started with amigurumi, but my favorite thing to crochet now are colorwork tapestries, despite the inevitable tangling. but it's soo satisfying watching an image slowly come to life right underneath your fingers, one stitch at a time


i use a mix of acrylic yarn from various brands, including loops and threads, red heart super saver, mainstays, and random scrap yarn i inherited from my neighbor who used to crochet

resources

these are sites that i frequently use (all free!):

stitch fiddle: make your own pixel grids/graphs

braceletbook: forum site intended for making bracelets, but they have many free graphs - search by alpha patterns

antique pattern library: huge archive of free antique patterns. besides crochet, they also have every other craft you can think of

yarnsub: find yarn substitutes
