Ribblr of the Week - Meet Pickle! 💜

Say hello to Pickle @PickledSweet - our new Ribblr of the Week and the designer behind Pickled.Sweet.Crochet :confetti_ball:

Tell us a little about yourself:
Hi! i’m pickle, i am a pattern designer & tester, and I usually spend my free time crocheting, reading, or watching a movie! I most enjoy creating amigurumi plushies! :rabbit:

When did you start crafting and how?
I started crafting around October 2023, i wanted to learn how to crochet so i could make a bunny i saw on youtube! thankfully, i have a family member that can crochet, so I had guidance from her.

How did you start designing?
Honestly, after I learned how to create magic rings, i just free-handed something, looked at the shape, and determined what I wanted it to be! after that, it kind of took off! I started creating patterns, some better than others, but I finally figured out my style for the craft I love!

Do you have a favorite craft type and if so - why?
I’ve tried knitting, but I definitely prefer crochet for the type of projects I like to create! there’s just so many different stitches and techniques to use and choose from! just a wonderful craft with so many possibilities!

What was the most memorable project you worked on?
hmmm definitely my mushroom cardigan! it’s one of the biggest projects I’ve ever completed, and it took around 9 days! I remember my hands aching due to how much I was crocheting each day.

What is your usual process for designing?
Most of the time, I’ll sketch my idea on paper, tweaking if needed, then I look at the shapes and decide what techniques I’ll need to use to achieve the desired shape - wether it’s a magic ring, foundation chain, or if I need to crochet multiple pieces together!

What inspires you to create?
Inspiration can come from lots of places, as does mine! whether it’s the color of my yarn, scrolling on Pinterest or even the things around me! inspiration is what motivates you to create something, and that definitely, solely, comes from the people/things around you!

What are you currently working on? Be honest - how many WIP do you have right now?
I’m currently working on 2 projects, although I possibly have 8-10 WIPs :person_facepalming:, sad, I know. for the ones I’m working on, it’s a secret :cat_with_wry_smile:.

Which of your makes/designs are you most proud of? Share a picture!
For sure some of these! all patterns can be found in my makes & shop!

Any favorite song, book or movie you would like to recommend?
hmmm for sure the any of the following movie series; The Hunger Games, The Divergent Series, Back to the Future & Lord of the Rings/Hobbit! movie series are definitely my favorites to binge, in my opinion, these are some of the best!

What is your favorite feature on Ribblr?
My favorite feature is for sure how easy it is to use Ribbuild, post tester calls, and test patterns! I also love how you can create journals and you can showcase all your makes in one place!

Where can people find you online?
I’m active on Ribblr for the most part!
