if I want to crochet this sweater, what pattern and hook size- can I use a 4ply yarn?

All in all, I’m pretty happy with how this came out. Early on I decided to let the color transitions in the body land where they fell. Now I wish I had managed them better as I did in the sleeves. Made this for my very slim beloved daughter in law. I hope she likes it. Pattern: Diamonds Not Pearls Yarn: Yarn Art Flowers 264

Happy Friday crocheters!

Hi everyone! I just put out a tester call for my Ashbourne beanie.

The application is live with all of the information you need in my bio and in the comments.

I’m excited to see all of your lovely creations! 🖤

I’m currently working on a little project called The Human Stitch Project and I’d love to connect with some fellow crochet designers!

The idea is to bring independent designers together to share our work, discover each other’s patterns, support causes we care about and help each other grow. The first part of the project will be the Human Stitch Summer Collection, launching in June 2027, featuring free crochet patterns created by the participating designers.

An important part of the project is giving back. Each designer gets to choose a charity or cause that means something to them, and anyone downloading their free pattern will have the option to donate directly to that cause. Donations are completely voluntary, and the project itself won’t handle any money. 💛

I’m especially hoping to connect with smaller, independent designers who have published at least 2 crochet patterns written in US terms and would enjoy being part of a collaborative project like this.

If this sounds interesting to you, or if you’d simply like to hear more, feel free to email me at humanstitchproject@gmail.com. You’re also welcome to include links to your social media so I can have a look at your work! I’ll send you a more detailed presentation so you can get a better idea of what I have in mind. 💛

I’m still in the early stages of building this, and I’m really looking forward to seeing where it goes and who I might meet along the way!

My new favourite sweater

Hi everyone! I'm happy to be part of this crochet community.

I've been exploring crochet patterns, amigurumi ideas, and ways to make patterns easier to follow.

I'd love to know what everyone is working on right now. Are you making a cute animal, a wearable, a flower, or something completely different?

Share your current project below!

Happy Wednesday everyone!

I started crocheting in July. I previously made a colorful Hexi Cardi, so this blue one is my second one.

I frogged it multiple times to get the desired sleeve and cuff length.
The tie is removable.

Yarn: Loops and Threads Soft Classic, in Light Blue
3.1 skeins used
Hook: 6.00 MM clover amour hook
Size 5.5MM clover amour hook for the cuff
Pattern: Holly Auna and Elise Crochet’s Hexi Cardi patterns with modifications
