Donations welcome!
I keep saying I'll give y'all opportunities to tip me for the live classes, and then I forget. (Pretty obvious I'm not in this for the money, huh?) Well, I'm thinking of it now, so here it is! Help keep me supplied with rice and kimchi so that I can continue making feral craft tutorials: paypal.me/lyddiedoodles

Rules and Guidelines
Since this is a group for feral crafters, I will try to keep the rules to a minimum. 🌿🍄🌿 - Use kind words - Not all art will appeal to all audiences. Objective critique should be offered only when requested, and care should be taken not to "yuck" on the styles and subject matters others enjoy. Remember, we're all weird here. - Be on topic - Make sure your posts are in the proper category (Painting, Crochet, General, etc.) and try to avoid derailing conversations that are taking place. If a conversation evolves beyond the scope of that category, feel free to continue the discussion in General. - No T.R.A.S.H. - T.R.A.S.H. stands for Transphobia, Racism, Ableism, Sexism, and Homophobia, but the rule applies to bigotry in all of its forms. For example, this includes Sinophobia (bigotry towards China/the Chinese people) and classism. It does not include fascists, which are excluded per the tolerance paradox. - No GenAi - Generative AI is a clustermuck of ethical, environmental, and practical trouble, and it is antithetical to the purpose of this community. As such, its use in the creative process for my classes is prohibited, and Gen AI content will be removed unless there is a valid educational purpose for its inclusion. - Must be 18+ - This community is intended for adults. We may discuss subjects or use language that is not suitable for younger participants. If you have a young student who would like to take my classes, please inquire about my lessons on Outschool! ☺ 🌿🍄🌿 These rules may change over time as the group grows and evolves. Repeated violations of the rules may incur a warning or removal from the community. 🌿🍄🌿

LIVE CLASS - May 13, 2026: Crochet on the Round
Live Class: Crochet on the round April 22, 2026 at 7PM-8PM Central Time Subject: Learn the process of crocheting on the round, a necessary skill for making stuffed toys (amigurumi) and other 3D shapes. Supplies needed: - Crochet hook & Yarn in the size/weight of your preference. "Just practicing" - if you just want to practice the methods without making a project, any hook and yarn will do. Hat: If you would like to make a bucket hat or beanie, use the yarn of your choice and refer to the label for the recommended hook size. Amigurumi: If you want to make a stuffed toy, you will need a hook that is much smaller than the recommended size. For medium weight (4) yarn, I recommend 4mm or smaller (I use 3.5 and others prefer to go even smaller.) For super bulky (6) yarn, I recommend a 6 mm or smaller. - Scissors - Yarn/Darning/Tapestry needle Additional supplies: For hats: ruler/tape measure For Amigurumi: stuffing material, safety eyes. Skills needed: - Basic crochet skills (Slipknot, chains, single crochet stitch, etc.) --- This is a free class that any member of the community can attend. It will take place over a live video call via the Skool platform. Attendees who wish to provide financial support will be given opportunities to do so. 🌿🍄🌿🌿🍄🌿🌿🍄🌿 PS: I sent this as an email to all members. Do you find these emails helpful or spammy?
