Currently working on sweater no. 15 for my cable fix but tbh I don’t think my favorite things patterns are as great as a lot of other designers and this is probably the last one I’ll make

Fiona from shrek

i think the socks are the wrong move, the rest looks great ❤

im not sure what your vibe was here but personally i dont like it

И 💚💛💚💛

I need a tutorial!! ✨

Wait why is the yarn so pretty😭

"I spent 40 thousand dollars on yarn? And I have no place to live?" yeah, that sounds about right for me

As a crocheter I now don't buy from cheap places that have crochet items. Crochet can't be done by machine so if they're charging £7 for a crochet top, the creator is being financially abused for that product😢

I'm learning to make clothes too. So many people could learn this lesson and see just how much things are worth when you put a little effort into it

Not to mention…my left wrist is killing me!!!!!! 😢

Lifelong crocheter here, and it's heartbreaking when you realize the fastest way to devalue yarn is to make something with it. 🧶🧶🧶 People who aren't fiber artists tend to not value that effort at all.

Yep, unless parts are able to be done on a machine, your paying for just a step above slave labour at these sorts of stores.

Yeah.. and if you try to sell them people think you’re gonna make bank. No!! I can’t possibly sell it for the amount of time and effort it took, even if I just count my work at 5$ an hour. That shirt would be more expensive than Gucci. After going to a few markets, only make small cute things, only things that are worth selling. But anyway be you, do it for yourself because you love it and it’s worth a million, because it’s made by you.

I’m 3 months into (and almost done with!) a filet crochet table runner. So much went into it I swear I’m gonna be buried with it

Man thank you so much all my friends know I can crochet so they always ask me to make them things. I do it for fun and it’s calming I tell them it takes to long

I love what you have to say, but for some reason, i couldn't stop thinking about how that last sweater would look in watermelon colors- pinkish body, green and beige border, and obviously some black seeds on the back (maybe strawberry colors!...☺)

Thank you for saying this. Hopefully, it will resonate with shoppers.

Absolutely! Between planning it all out, cost of materials & time, aggravation of frogging & redoing whole rounds/rows, blocking, etc... It's a lot! If you do all that, taking the time to make make it nice and use yarn that's somewhat decent? Yeah, it's going to cost a bit more... as it should! You're right - taking advantage of desperate people and having them mass produce some tops as fast as humanly possible isn't quite the same as what we're doing! And just the fact that machines can't do it should tell people how intricate the process can be.

it must be so heavy.. i used this yarn to make something similar before and the results was that the piece was very heavy

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SAYING THIS...i have wanted SOMEONE to point this out!!! it takes a LOT of time to make your own clothes, and theres a lot of feeling in what we do...please respect the art!!!!!!!

Crochet *can not* be done via machine, but some people have discovered how to make knit machines make stuff that looks, from a distance, like crochet. Lots of what is in fast fashion that looks crocheted at a distance, is actually knit on machines. Which doesn't change the ethics of stealing other people's art, and mimicking it to make a quick buck.

Shein is terrible for your wardrobe! I remember getting so much hate from my exes family for saying that, but it's the truth. Fast fashion = bad quality. I don't care how "cheap" it is. Cheap for a reason! I love thrifting stuff because they knock down the prices, but not because it's mass produced and looking for a fast dollar. Your tops are so cute, and I actually like the first one the most.

I was bullied relentlessly as a kid for wearing crocheted sweaters because my mom always made everything with crochet. 😂 I still can't wear any crocheted clothes to this day.

A crochet top should always be a minimum of $50. Bare minimum for a top that’s a net style, (they’re faster and easier to make). If you’re not paying big bucks, you’re paying for slave labor.

I agree with your politicalbstance about fast fashion. For 30 years now I stopped purchasing clothes at Full retail, and just thrifted. I had always had a thing for vintage clothes anyway even as a kid. Plus I was poor. As an poor American who could sew young- I have made as many clothes as I ever purchased. I hate throwing away any item with hand embellishment so I pass those on to others who appreciate them!

a MONTH ? 😭😭 these would take mr 6 months easily! you're very talented!

These are sweaters, not shirts and they are beautiful.

None of them are a flop!!! Nice work 😊

Correction: DONT play this audio 3X infront of ur girl. ESPECIALLY if shes latina😂

So true!!

Love the designs

Wowwwwww ❤❤❤❤

I love these shirts! They remind me so much of chandler from Friends. In the early episodes he always had a shirt like this… inky not as cool as the crocheted ones 🙂 I will henceforth personally be referring to this shirt as the Crochandler Top 🙃🤣 Wait. That looks like it says Crotch-Handler …. So Nevermind 🤣🤣

THIS IS SO REAL I NEED ALL THE DRAMA

omg NEED A PATTERN/TUTORIAL

The way i make sure i have enough yarn is going back to a completed project and take that amount of yarn and add about half of that more to it. This works about 80% of the time.

Simply beautiful. I knit....just can't get the hang of crochet!!!❤

I love it!!!!

Love this! Is there a pattetn available?

Made in Fiona👏💕

Hiç giymemiş gibi... ___Beatiful İSLAM. Like kuran

Muy bello

So beautiful. What a great job you did. This is stunning😁

3 and 4

Would you say a project like this would be possible for someone new-ish at crochet ? Or is it more advanced and i should wait a bit ? They are so cute i wanna make one !

👏👏👏

Omggg love it so much!!!

❤so cute❤

Which rope and crochet do you use?
