For our safety, we must all remain anonymous at 7 Cups, and reverse image search is so easy these days! To stay anonymous you may need to choose pieces that you have not already posted or featured on any other site. Or create content just for us! ✅ Please make sure your work is acceptable to the 7 Cups guidelines and rules:- ❌ No sexual pictures, uncovered shoulders, bikini, bare chest pictures etc.  ❌ No pictures of smoking, drugs or alcohol, or guns, knives, violence etc. Please note that adding a 'Trigger Warning' or [TW] does not make any content acceptable.

Mystery Pattern Sharing! (Crochet).
by TheCrew4887
Last post
 November 13th
...See more Mystery Patterns are patterns for a crochet project that the crocheter doesn't know what it'll end up as until they're done. I usually see this done with amigurumi, but anything works! The patterns are usually released in sections over several days or even weeks to keep it fun and keep the suspense.  If you join, I have some optional rules to help keep it more fun for everyone else! 1. Make sure to list the estimated yardage needed and the colors needed to make it work best 2. Include instructions for special stitches (Bubble stitch, etc).  Typical Rules:  * Step-by-step releases: The pattern is divided into sections, and each part is released periodically—sometimes over several weeks or months. * No spoilers: Participants are encouraged not to spoil the outcome for others, maintaining the mystery and excitement. * Interactive community: These projects often foster a sense of community, as crocheters share their progress, ask questions, and help each other out while following the mystery pattern. * Variety of designs: Mystery crochet patterns can range from small accessories (like scarves or shawls) to larger projects (like blankets or garments). They can also be stuffed animals or appliques.

Basic Crochet Ornament Pattern
by EmotionsListener
Last post
 December 3rd, 2023
...See more Well last week we made some crochet snow people, this week I thought we could crochet something for the tree. (It also makes a great cat toy, just ask my cats!) [Image consists of a crochet ornament.] Basic Crochet Ornament (Beginner) Materials: * Small crochet hook (approx 3.5mm) * Stitch marker * Worsted weight yarn (a 3 or 4) in main colour(s) and accent colours * Large eye yarn needle * Ribbon or hook for hanging (optional) * (Patience!) Abbreviations: (US terminology) st = stitch sc= single crochet inc = increase (2 sc into single stitch) dec =invisible decrease (sc 2 stitches together) [number]= total number of stitches in each round This pattern is not worked in continuous rounds, use a stitch marker to mark the start of each round. Ornament Sections - Basic circle (Make 6 in main colour(s)) Rnd 1: 6 sc in a magic ring, slip stitch to join round [6] Rnd 2: chain 2 (counts as first sc),inc in each stitch repeat around, slip stitch into top of beginning  chain 2 to join the round. [12] Rnd 3: chain 2 (counts as first sc) *inc in first stitch, sc in next stitch, repeat from * around, slip stitch into top of beginning  chain 2 to join the round. [18] Rnd 4: chain 2 (counts as first sc) *inc in first stitch, sc in next 2 stitches, repeat from * around, slip stitch into top of beginning  chain 2 to join the round. [24] Rnd 5: chain 2 (counts as first sc) *inc in first stitch, sc in next 3 stitches, repeat from * around, slip stitch into top of beginning  chain 2 to join the round. [30] Fasten off. Once you have all 6 sections completed it’s time to assemble your ornament. Assembly  * Using your accent colour, take ornament sections 1 and 2 and lay them with wrong sides together, align outer stitches, crochet together 15 of the 30 stitches along one edge, fasten off.  * Taking ornament section 3, folding back the unfinished half of the original sections, line up the edge of section 2 and section 3 with wrong sides together and crochet the remaining 15 stitches of section 2 to 15 stitches of section 3. * Repeat adding each section as in step 2 until all 6 ornament sections have been connected. * Line up ornament section 6 with ornament section 1 and stitch together the remaining 15 stitches of each.  * At this point your ornament will be nearly done, tuck all yarn tails inside, using a large eye yarn needle and a piece of accent colour yarn, stitch closed the bottom and top of the ornament. Pull tight, fasten off and work in ends. * To finish, add a hook, tie or ribbon to the top of the ornament for hanging. Now that you have a basic pattern, let your imagination take it to the next level. You can make it more interesting in a number of ways. Maybe you'll make your ornament segments larger by adding another row of increases? Will you choose to make your ornament sections in multiple colours, or work each round of the basic circle in a different colour? Do you have a metallic yarn to use for edging? Perhaps add a decorative edge to your seams? Add some beads or sequins for sparkle? It’s all up to you! [Image consists of evergreen branches with gold beads.] Going to try out this pattern? Share your results with us and hang your ornaments here in our virtual tree where we all can see! Maybe you even have another pattern we can all try? Would you like to be added to our tag list?
