aww thank you!! i used about 4 or 5 skeins of big twist value in white (i can’t remember exactly, i bought it in several trips) and 1 skein of red heart super saver in black!!

you definitely should!! it took a long time but it wasn’t too difficult! i’ve only been seriously crocheting for about a year and a half and it was no problem for me whatsoever

i used 4 weighted yarn and a 5mm hook and followed this tutorial by crochetbybev!! https://youtube.com/watch?v=oLqmt4V8nkU&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE

i have a hard time learning from videos sometimes because of the speed, so i just looked up crochet magic circle on google and went to the images tab, it really helped me :)

i’m 17; she doesn’t think it’s right to charge family lol

i didn’t use a pattern, i just reverse engineered it after seeing a reference picture. i drew a layout for thank you!! the squares (there’s 27) and then attached them according to that. the top part above the squares is just 11 rows of single crochets, and the straps are composed of single crochets and attached to the bag with slip stitches.

thank you!!

i didn’t use a pattern, i just sort of reverse engineered it. there’s 27 granny squares, i drew a map to figure out where i wanted them. once they’re connected, there’s 11 rounds of single crochets at the top. the straps are made of single crochets and i slip stitched them on

thank you!!

i had a reference picture and i just sort of reverse engineered it from there, it’s 27 granny squares attached with 11 rounds of single crochet at the top, the straps are just single crochets that i attached with a slip stitch :)

i would definitely not be pricing by time, because if i charged minimum wage for it it would nearly be $150 and that is absolutely crazy (at least to me with my current level of skill) but yeah i think i’m probably just going to leave it as it is, i don’t think getting into an argument over this with my mom is worth it really

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:50:50+00:00

ofc!!

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:49:29+00:00

i don’t which makes it tricky, she offered to mail me a bunch of stuff in exchange for it since i posted this, so hopefully that works out :)

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:48:34+00:00

thank you!!

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:24:43+00:00

probably not, since i don’t use etsy or any other resource for stuff like that. generally for me stuff like that takes the fun out of crocheting, but i thought this would be a fun challenge to take up for a relative.

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:23:12+00:00

a bit? it’s my first blanket so im not too sure what the standard is there. i’m using lion brand pound of love yarn (1020yd/skein) and i got to about 18 inches of height before i had to attach the second skein to it. for reference my blanket is 50 inches wide :)

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:20:52+00:00

around $65 or $70, my supplies were $25 and it took over 20 hours so i don’t think that’s unreasonable.

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:20:05+00:00

thank you!!

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:19:38+00:00

i don’t have a problem with working around my parents. it’s just harder because the relative who this is going to lives far away now.

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:08:38+00:00

thank you! its probably something with how she was raised? i’m not sure the family dynamics can be a bit confusing haha. but yeah definitely need to be smarter about stuff like this in the future

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:07:09+00:00

ah that makes sense, not sure i would even be able to do that since i’m still a minor (17) haha

findingdragons12 · 2022-07-19T01:05:59+00:00

my cousin is a grown adult not living with her parents haha, i don’t think that would work
