I was on pinetrest and saw a pattern for little owls. I understood most of the pattern but did not know what a “magic circle” was and how to work with it. Would you be able to help me out with this pattern and how to recreat it! Thank you.

When crocheting the second (and subsequent) rows, I’m always confused about crocheting into a SC or DC. If you crochet into the little “V” on top, it’s never centered over the stitch – but if you center it over the stitch, it’s never in the little “V” on top. I know how to do most stitches, but this confuses me all the time. surely I’m not the only one. Can you help us?

I’ll put together a tutorial in the next few days. Thanks so much for asking!

I have been told that I created a new crochet stitch by many long time crocheting people. I am not sure if I did I know it’s a variation of one that I was learning for a baby blanket. I then had an idea and switched the stitch up a bit and also created a twin size blanket using 2 known stitches and my variation of one of the stitches. I have only been crocheting for 6 months now and learn stitches from videos then just imagine something and go at it. I created a beautiful twin size blanket for commission. Now I’m being asked what pattern I used. I didn’t use one I used 2 stitches and my variation of the one and created the design in my head. I have been told I should find out about the stitch I may have created as well as creating a pattern for my design. I have tons of ideas in my head about things that I want to create or design but don’t know what to do with all of this. Can you please advise me.
Thank you,
Katrina Snyder

Is it a single stitch, or a stitch combo, that you think is new? Stitches are copyrighted, so honestly there’s not much you can do other than share it with the world. :) You can however right up a pattern for a blanket or whatever else with the stitch, and that would be copyrighted.
