Improve your crochet skills; Day 1 :3

Hello! This might become a daily thing, but I think that it’s time we level up our crochet skills with some little tips :3
Day 1:
Right vs. wrong side
In amigurumi, there is a right and a wrong side. It’s not a big difference, it just makes your work look better!
How to tell:
If your work is on the wrong side, it will look like it has little lines, and the starting tail/ magic ring tail will be out, like shown in this picture:


How to fix it:
All you need to do is flip it inside out, then continue crocheting:3
It will have diagonal lines that look like this:

Another was tovl tell if you have it inside out is if your magic circle tail is on the outside then its not the right way around.

The first ever plushie I made was wrong side out and I had no idea at the time that flipping it inside out was all I had to do, this is definitely a super helpful tip for beginners :purple_heart:

I always keep mine on the “wrong side” I like it better but it’s definitely just a personal preference!

Also if youre making a flat piece, the right side will have the V’s showing at the top. :))
