@noflashingneon thank you! You're so sweet 💖
@ariaflame safety pins are also a good idea!
@DebsWithCats thanks for sharing! A tutorial I saw said: "don't fight the yarn, if you have to fight it it's because you're using too much tension". I've been following this idea and trying to do softer stitches 🤞
@ariaflame I bet you can find cheap markers easily. I tried the yarn trick but it happened several times that the yarn would fall out (?), I don't know if the piece of yarn was too short or it was the quality of the yarn (I used the green one that gave me trouble 😔)
Since during Christmas there was no way to buy any and was having trouble counting stitches, my husband 3D printed me some 😀
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4774727 these with the lock system are good, I'm using them to mark the first stitch and also secure the last stitch when I pause.
https://www.printables.com/model/25823-open-stitch-marker I use these to count stitches when I have to increase/decrease. They are a bit thick to work with 3mm yarn but we might reduce it a bit.
@noflashingneon lovely! 😍
I got this book as well with many projects. It has explanations of all stitch types, although I had to also watch some YouTube videos to see more in detail.
I can't wait to do the croissant 🥐 one 😁
@noflashingneon yes, you're 100% correct! I hope it turns out okay 😂
I also have a set to do a carrot and a strawberry 😁
Santa Claus gave me crochet kits 💖
I started with one of the yarns, which turned out to be difficult as it was unbundling itself (green).
The second day I switched to another yarn (white).
I'm struggling with tension and making it look smooth, but I'm pretty happy with the results as this is just my first week crocheting 😁
@LittleConkers thank you for sharing, that's a cute kit!
