Freeform crochet means creating a crochet surface with any stitches, shapes and colors that you like. No pattern, just going with the flow. Everything you want to do is right! See also a newer Freeform Crochet video: • Freeform Crochet Tips:...
I'm showing the start of a new freeform piece. This is not a step by step tutorial but giving you tips and examples of what you could do. However, the video shows you many different stitches and there are links to more detailed tutorials of those stitches below. Also for an advanced crocheter it improves your crochet skills, especially if you have mainly used ready-made patterns until now. In freeform you work out how many stitches and rows work best for the result you want to achieve. This can greatly improve your understanding of how a crochet surface is created.

This is a very interesting and inspiring demonstration. Freeform seems like it would be easy, but in reality I feel that you need a lot of experience and knowledge of stitches in order to do it correctly.
@TuulaMaaria
@TuulaMaaria 2 года назад
You are right, you need to understand how different stitches work and how to vary stitch anounts so your work stays flat.

This reminds me of my hippie years, I used to have a vest just like that, I wore it over a gypsy skirt. I have a free thinking 8 year old granddaughter that I know will love a vest made in this manner. And what a great way to use up all that scarp yarn, not to mention all the different stitches we will be learning. This is a very young at heart method of crocheting. I LOVE IT.❤️❤️ greetings from Australia 🇦🇺

I made a blanket using all different acrylic yarn scraps; and different stitches. In the style of “log cabin” .... kind of! I call it the “ugly blanket” but everyone likes it ! It also gets added to a little bit each year, so it’s not quite the “lap blanket” it started out as 😂 kiitos videosta! Toivon, että sinulla on mukavaa päivä!

Could work with children if they know to crochet very well. This takes quite a lot of ability as you need to work everything out yourself as you go. But great for using one's own imagination without patterns to restrict 💗

I started doing this years ago when I saw it at a craft show I was at. I had no plan in mind other than I wanted to see if I could do it and then I put it aside. It's still somewhere deep in my cupboard. I must get it out and maybe turn it into a cushion cover also. Great idea. You have given me some fresh ideas and a little more direction as to new stitches and how best to attach them. Thanks Tuula.

This is creative crochet and efficient use of yarn. Even this old Granny learned something very important from this video: Always do your bobbles on the wrong side of your work! Getting them to look good has always been a big fight for me, because the work always has to look neat. Maybe I remember this on the future 🤞 Thanks Tuula 🌹

Thank you! Combining knitting and crochet can be freeform but not necessarily. I would combine for example making a hat mainly crochet but knitting the ribbing, or making crochet borders to knitted items. Also on my latest video, at the very start, I'm showing how I made the poncho I'm wearing, it is half knitted, half crocheted ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-A-lbRMmapJA.html In this 10-year-old blog post I'm showing some past makes that are mixed crochet and knitting freeform purplecrafts.blogspot.com/2013/12/freeform-scarf.html
