The large sunflower turtle is adorable. A tip for a smoother color change: join 2nd color as normal, and instead of sc, do a slip stitch as your first stitch in the color change. Then, as you do the second row, sc into that slip stitch.

When you say colour change as normal.. how do you change colour please?

@aprilballard4798

Жыл бұрын

@law4age the last stitch before the second color, make a single crochet as normal (insert hook, yo, pull through stitch, yo and pull through both loops) EXCEPT the last yo you use your second color to pull through both loops. Then, the next stitch will be your slip stitch. I hope that makes sense. Lol

You inspired me to start crocheting! I started yesterday, and finished my octopus following your tutorial. Thank you so much! 🥰

Im just rewatching some of your videos while practicing my crochet skills and I have to say, I really like the velvet mallard. I think its "more realistic" in a way, specially the head, when I see them in the park sunbathing, they really shimmer so I think the velvet yarn suits them well ♥

Love watching your videos, and I’ve tried a couple of your patterns I purchased from your Etsy shop. I’m wondering if you could do a short video on how to add blush to your plushies?

Aww thank you so much!! ❤️ When I first started making plushies, I also had no idea how to do blush, even though it did seem super simple. I'll definitiely show you guys next time I film :) and the platypus pattern can be sized up if you use bulkier yarn -- I used size 6 originally so if you use size 7 and a 7mm or 8mm hook, he'll definitely turn out bigger!

Hi Genna! Crocheter to crocheter (idk if that's the right term but anyway), I was wondering what stuffed animal would be the easiest for me to attempt first. When i first started crocheting about 3 months ago, I attempted to crochet a crocodile and found it traumatising, but watching your videos has inspired me to re-attempt stuffed animals. I mainly crochet clothes so I believe that I'll be able to crochet animals. Also I want to get into selling at the market, although I think it would be hard to sell suck big and time consuming items so I want to learn littler projects in hopes of being able to start a crochet business. Although I am only 14 and I think that might turn out to be a con if I wanted to try selling online. Any tips that you or anyone else in the comment section would have for me I would be ever so grateful. Thank you to whoever is taking the time to read this and respond. Xx
