Lately: My Pile of Crochet

blitheSun94 November 6th, 2023

I’ve learned a lot in my first year of crochet! I hope to step it up next year and maybe even attempt to start and Etsy shop. Still learning my style, likes and dislikes, but I look forward to moving past the basics. Next step: Wearable! Thanks for all the love and support.

Oooh now that just looks wonderful. I love how creative you get with the colours too! Keep it up, it's something you're good at. What sort of things do you enjoy crocheting the most?

Wonderful collages of your gorgeous work!

You definitely have a great talent for this!

I love your creations.

So classy, and cozy at the same time!

Your choice and use of colors, textures and patterns speak of great aesthetic sensibility.

Etsy is a great idea. You can start small and on-demand. 

I also know people who started by building a network by word of mouth and making an email mailing list, WhatsApp list, and *** showcase.

Your classy, gorgeous, top-quality products will be your best advertising.

My good wishes and best of luck with your wonderful project!

Your dog is super-cute!

I would pay any price for a genuine BlitheSun scarf!

@blitheSun94 This looks great! You are much more advanced than I am, I'm still learning. It's a really relaxing activity. What else do you plan on making in the future?

@blitheSun94  Wow!!!  These are absolutely GORgeous!!!!  You have inspired me to take another look at The Crochet Crowd, and  to consider taking a crack at a blanket that I wanted to make a few years ago.  Thank you so much for posting here. 

I wish you great success going forward!  💖

Great to see all your work and progress! It really can be fun exploring what we like and don't like and finding our own niche within the larger category of crochet.

I actually found a new pattern to try just the other day for crochet socks that you crochet flat and then sew together. I will admit, when it comes to wearables I find crochet is either very lacy, or a bit heavier/stiffer than knitting, but there are certainly some lovely patterns out there. Do you have anything in mind for your first project?

Thanks for sharing the first year of your journey into crochet with us!
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Hello 7 Cups bestie! I would love to learn wearables next and make a more conscious effort to attempt to sell my work. Maybe next year will be the year!

If I get some time to try the crochet flat sock pattern in the next month or two perhaps I'll start the year off with some new socks and share the pattern then.

For now I have to crochet lots of... kitten toys! For a very cuddly reason. :)
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

:o that's a nice stash you've got going! I've started only a few months ago but I'm suuuper fixated on it right now - mostly making little things like Amigurumi plushies, but also working on a big granny square cardigan :) you seem to be better than me at sticking to solid colors / schemes, I've been so attracted to self-striping yarn & other kinds that things end up looking a bit chaotic haha. Wishing you well !

@blitheSun94 Wow, you're so skilful! Looking forward to seeing more of your crochet photos!
