Crocheting like a Grandma

Hey all! I don’t usually post in threads but I’ve recently taken up crochet and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for my next project!

Wishing you all a beautiful day :)

amigirumi (crochet stuffies)!!

 They’re pretty easy

 anything roughly oval/round with mostly the same colors is easier, like a pig (idk)

tbh I never use patterns, stuffies are a good place to mess around with it and figure out yarn physics (for lack of a better word) and then you can make your own patterns if you aren’t already :)

yayyyy have fun

@politePlace5370 woww, I like your suggestions!! 💙
amigurumi is honestly the best; lowkey yarn physics is such a real thing and 
honestly yarn mathematics too, there’s definitely math involved no doubt 😂

well, I've been using patterns so far but experimenting like you mentioned sounds really fun!!! :D
Also, not sure if you’ve seen this yet but there’s a new Crocheting & Knitting category that was just added in Hobby zone, we can share our WIPs, projects and tips there!
Crocheting and Knitting
^^ You can check it out and share some of your creations there, we'd love to see 'em, especially since you freestyle your stuffies! 💕
good luck with your future projects 🍀

@EmotionalSupportButton So glad that you decided to post and started crocheting, crochet is such a fun rabbit hole to fall into! :D

I actually started earlier this year too and I’ve been obsessed with amigurumi lately, they’re just too cute to resist (˶˃ ᵕ ˂˶) .ᐟ.ᐟ

well, if you’re looking for easy project ideas, you could try:
little plushies (like bees, octopuses or mini bears)
simple coasters or granny squares
small keychains (great for quick wins!)

Amigurumi is super beginner-friendly once you get the hang of it! :)
Hope you have the best time crocheting!!! 🍀

How about Winter hats for dogs complete with faux earmuffs

Or, what about Halloween hats?maybe witches hats for dogs?

Then there's always Valentine's Day... a heart hat with a Cupid and an arrow on a hat would be adorable for a dog...
