Sorry if I missed any names, I couldn't remember everyone

but this is the blanket I made for my sister. It isn't perfect but she loved it. I had to stick a pillow under it to make it look right because I messed up the middle. ☺️🧡 but she loves it and I'm happy with my first blanket.

Thanks for being so supportive everyone! And to everyone I missed tagging: I'm so sorry!!

Yayyy, I was actually wondering about your blanket earlier :D (Some girls were crocheting in the common area and I mentioned I had a friend who was great at crocheting blankets)

The color scheme is actually really nice!! I’d put it on my bed. And it looks super cozy and soft

To even out the sides, you can pin the blanket to desired shape and steam it with a steamer (if acrylic), or even just aim a hair dryer at it for a few minutes - high heat relaxes the plastic polymers in the fabric

@Sakiuu

I can't wait :O

Yes definitely doing something new but I gotta figure out what first lol. I was thinking of doing stuffed animals next. I may do an octopus or something ~

@cheebsra

Octopus would be so cute :0 You could do different colors for the tentacles!! And I read that you can stuff the plushie with uncooked rice, heat it up for a warm weighted pillow/toy (but like . . . wouldn’t that get moldy eventually lmao)

I think I suggested this to you before, but you can find thousands of free crochet patterns on Ravelry :D Stuffed toys are under the category “amigurumi”

:o thank you for reminding me!! You're the best saki. Also uncooked, dried rice doesn't mold ;) at least not easily
