I think it came out great! 🧸
Which craft? (in my head, the pause between those words has to be so drawn out)
@ExecutiveFunction404 witchcraft! It’s crochet, he came out super lopsided because I couldn’t see what I was doing with the fleece yarn
@ExecutiveFunction404 I started out counting multiple times but it was coming out crooked anyway so I kind of gave up 😂 in my defense this was my first crochet stuffed animal AND my first time using fleece yarn. Have you tried chenille yarn? I was thinking about doing that next time.
Chenille is so much easier to work with than furry or velvet, bc it's kind of like a plush yarn that's more structured, like bernat blanket yarn. The stitches are *much* easier to see. This little sloth was made with blanket yarn.
If you mean chenille velvet (why must they be so confusing?!? 😂), it's pretty much the same as the velvet yarn I'm currently using lol. I made the bat out of "chenille velvet".
I LOVE making amigurumi (if you search #crochet, I posted some creations)
@ExecutiveFunction404 I love those!! I had no idea chenille velvet was a thing
Thanks!
Idk if it's called chenille velvet, but it's not like the blanket yarn. It's more velvety and, imo, much, much softer.
And when I was working on my current project earlier, I noticed the yarn I'm currently using is considered velour, not velvet, but it feels the same (except a bit softer, though it could be the brand) & looks very similar.
@lemontart
I thought so, but it's hard to tell with the fuzzy yarn. I made a koala with faux fur yarn & counting the stitches by feel took forever. I always lose count while hooking lol. Now I'm working with velvet yarn & it's just as much of a pita 😂
Do you also recount a row like 5x bc it's hard to tell if you missed or double counted stitches sometimes? Especially one with lots of increases (maybe it's not as difficult for you if you don't crochet as tightly as I do lol)
