Frequently asked questions.
How long does it take you to make something??
It all depends on the yarn choice and type of item being created. Things like yarn size, the bigger the yarn the quicker the item is to make. The other factor is the item it’s self, an item with lots of details will also add time.
How did you learn how to crochet?
Youtube for the basics. I have picked up good tips and tricks along the way from crocheting for so long.
Do you ship world wide?
I offer to ship worldwide, with this being said I will always try to be upfront about the costs of shipping around the world.
Do I have to use the same yarn as you use in a pattern?
In short, no… however…
Using a similar yarn, in terms of weight and fibre etc., will increase your chances of creating a project that looks like the sample.
Using a different fibre (what the yarn is made from) will create a different look and impact how the fabric behaves.
Using a different yarn weight will create a different look and different size (unless you still match gauge and drape).
If you’re switching yarn, it helps to understand how this will impact your project.
Creating a gauge / tension swatch is the most practical way to test if your yarn choice is suitable.
It is a subjective decision, but swatching will allow you to assess whether you like the drape and texture of the fabric you’ve created, as well as checking the tension. This will enable you to make an informed choice based on your personal preference.
