Iām a miser when it comes to yarn. I frog things and always tie it back on the skein, try to use as little yarn as possible in an Mr, and NEVER leave enough yarn for sewing
Haha! I do the exact opposite!
Mine is, that I understuff nearly ALWAYS and that when I decrease, there always happen to be holes. You can see it here:
Multi step process:
Step 1: Force myself to finish a practical project thatās repetitive but builds skills (like a hat).
Step 2: Wear the hat a few times, disliking it more each time for some minor detail.
Step 3: When a very, very cute amigurumi pattern must have that exact same color yarn, I will unravel just a little of the hat telling myself Iāll buy more yarn soon. Instead, I carry around this half-dead zombie hat, slowly feeding yarn stitch-by-stitch to hungry amigurumis.
i have a jar full of yarn scraps that i swear iām gonna use, but always end up using stuffing instead
I will adapt every single pattern to look completely divergent (except if Iām testing)
same!!
i keep all my yarn scraps and they start falling on the floor INCLUDING the stuffing coming from the pillow i use for stuffing
i overstuff
i canāt do a good mr for the life of me
i crochet far too tight
in the middle of a pattern iāll think āoh you know whatād be cool? this:ā and then mess it up
i make up random stitches
i start making patterns and then just stop
i have too many WIPs
i use extra yarn scraps as stuffing
REAL ME TOO ISTG
if im making a pattern and it looks slightly off iāll rewrite it how i think it would fix it then have testers deal w it
also wip blindness and either not crocheting for like 2 weeks just to crochet for 2 days straight
Mine is that I will buy yarn and then have an existential crisis over how much yarn I have
Mine is stacking myself up with too many things to do or i do not hold the hook and yarn the correct way so whenever i crochet with anyone else its really hard to understand what theyre doing.
define ātoxicā
I crochet always. If I canāt crochet, I create patterns. If I canāt create now, I start a pattern in my shop and jot down a few notes so I remember later. I see everything (everything) as a potential crochet pattern.

i always overestimate how much yarn iāll need to sew something on (i do the same thing with sewing smh) and i end up with a super long tail that i have to either weave in or cut off, or both. also my tension is quite loose, so thatās why i have to use small hooks to get my amigurumi to look right XD and i hoard yarn scraps like crazyyy and either use them for stuffing, or store them at the bottom of a drawer where they will probably be for the rest of eternity :3
thatās so real smh
I design and make loaads of patterns ā¦ but hate writing them up becauseā¦ . well I have more ideas i want to createā¦ and when i publish patterns i get all fussy aboit the look and contents and make so much more work for myselfā¦ but Iām trying to build a pattern writing businessā¦ so i have so many part finished patterns and books of designs all written downā¦ but have only published a handfulā¦ current total is 60+ designs and patterns vs about 10 actually published (not included in the 60)
and 5 of those are un mags ā¦ive not even got around to publishing them myself yet even though theyāre already written up!
My toxic trait is making all the pieces to a project and then just never sewing it together
If I have the wrong stitch count, I just increase or decrease till i do
When I use a yarn, I donāt put it back into my yarn dresser, I just throw it into the big box I have on my floorā¦
I do that too!! There is no way Im redoing it bc theres one to many stitches
Makeing ALL the pieces to a project and then NEVER sewing them together. Also starting many WIPs and not fininshing over half of them
