New Skill Series - Crochet Part 6

Hello everyone!

Life is less hectic now which means I have had time to crochet! So we're back to our regularly scheduled programming.

This is Crochet Lesson 5 Take 2! In case you missed it, Take 1 was a bit of a mess. Things went wrong and I had no clue where things went wrong or how to fix them. Thankfully, I do not exist in a vacuum! Both @legendarycollectionjellyfish3 and @caseyscozycorner were kind enough to comment and let me know their thoughts. You were both right! My core problem was my tension. I didn't have to go up a hook size but as seen below I was able to crochet a successful Moss/Linen stitch sample! The reason my first attempt curled was that because my stitches were so tight, I couldn't tell the difference between my chain space and my SC space so I was putting the hook in both instead of just the chain space, therefore dramatically increasing the number of stitches. At least I think that's why it curled. Thank you again for taking a moment to comment on my post because it really encouraged me to relax and try again!

So yeah, here's Linen/Moss stitch take 2! I'm glad I got some outside perspective from more experienced crocheters because I genuinely thought this was going to end up as like 3 failed attempts and then giving up to come back to at a later time. Mainly because I couldn't figure out what went wrong. It's wild to think how much tension makes a difference in a piece. I think I have a better grasp on tension for crochet now but I guess we'll find out as time goes on!

Hey there! This is Rouke from @queerautism and @afaintcloudyhaze - And this will be my blog to document my crochet journey, which is my main focus at the moment, plus any embroidery, felting, sewing, etc I do.

I am disabled, and deal with chronic pain, hand pain, motor skill issues and dyscalculia. So often I have to adapt things so I can do them my own unique way!

I hold both my crochet hook and my working yarn on my right hand, and move my work with my left.

Please feel free to interact, I love talking about this stuff and it would make me really happy! (And I'd love to follow your craft blog too, please share!)

New Skill Series - Crochet Part 3

Hello Hello Everyone!

It's Friday! This not only means that the weekened is soon upon us, but that it's New Skill Series day!🥳🥳 Today I'm going to show you the results of lesson 3: Double Crochet, learnt via this video.

As mentioned last week, I ended up going up a hook size to a 6.0mm hook and it worked a lot better than the 5.5mm hook I'd been using previously. I found that with the bigger hook, it was easier to get the tension right so it's probably that my previous tension issue was due to hook size. Who'd've known.

I'm not sure if it was the bigger hook or the stitch itself but double crochet is my favourite stitch so far. It was really easy for me to pick up and from beginning to end I didn't have any problems. I was also better able to see the stitches, but again, that could've been a hook size problem.

I think it looks pretty good! Excited to learn Triple Crochet next!
