I just recently got into crocheting, (by recently I mean 2 weeks ago), an randomly made this so ppl can talk abt their crochet projects, and type any cute patterns they know abt in the chat, I'm personally an amigurumist bcz I'm to lazy, and I only have embroidery thread, my parents hate it whenever I talk abt crochet (they're kinda sexist 😢) so they took away the actual size string I had and used for my first crochet project (amigurumi octopus), 🎉 and wont let me use the hooks my mom has, so I just *stole one* and use it w/ embroidery thread. I'm hoping ppl actually see this and make a thriving community out of it. 🙂 🙂

here' a free translation box for common abbreviations
sc=single crochet
inc=increase
Dec=decrease
slst=slip stitch
ch=chain
BLO=back loop only
bo=bobble stitch
dc=double crochet
bo's will tipically have the amount of loops you need to end up with before closing it . and any number inside parenthesis means the amount of stitches you need after a round (typically 4 amigurumi), feel free to edit and repost anywhere in this comment section. 🙂

One important info for people following English-language patterns: the UK and US terminology is slightly different, so make sure that you know which one your pattern is written in so you do the correct stitches.

thanks for the reminder, also everyone feel free to add your own patterns for anything, It doesn't necessarily have to be amigurumi, it can be anything you want it to be 🙂

Hey I too crochet! I’ve been crocheting for 4-5 years(Wow I can’t believe it’s been that long)! I crochet amigurumi dragons & other crazy mythical creatures! My first project was a coaster then it went to a mini octopus, to a taco, to the mythical creatures, cats, foods I crochet today!😊

I changed my mind, and this way I can technically give credit to the original creator, the link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIT7UaXLLX0 I made it, but the body is light purple, and starting from the bobble stitch row, (the little legs) it's a darker shade, but now I don't know what to do for the rest of the color scheme, should I do both ears the same dark purple of the legs (I ran out of light purple, that's the whole reason I made the leg dark purple) and what colors should I do for the facial features? thanks in advance to whoever helps 🙂

I was thinking red/blue/gold for the eyes, then a lavender (not quite dark purple, but not too light) for the whiskers, and a soft pink 4 the blush, and make the ears dark purple like I said, but I'm not sure, I need opinions.

My cat patterns are from a book I have called “Dumpling cats” by Sarah Sloyer. It has sooo many cats like Wilbur who has a bee costume or Roly who like to the watch the clouds go by. There are 25 cats + food bowls, cat bed, and a cardboard box! They are all sooooooo cute!!!!❤️🥰😊

Hi there, I've crocheted for probably 2 years but very on and off 🙈I have about 10 projects on the go! 😂

All of my projects are mostly blankets for friends but I haven't gotten around to making them 😐 😂

I might have finished 3 projects LOL 🤪

How many projects have you been working on? 😄

my first one was a practice square, then I took it apart, and made a octopus, (the first pattern in this forum) now, I'm working on the mochi cat, I'm about to Finnish, also, midnightTH gave me some color suggestions, so don't worry about it. 🙂

The only thing I’ve crocheted so far is a chunky scarf but I’ve always wanted to learn! I found an absolutely adorable pattern for a crocheted top and aim to get there day. However, I have so little time that learning has been sidelined my list of things-I’ll-do-when-I’m-not-drowning-in-work lol
