Testing / Reviewing 10 Amigurumi crochet patterns to see if they are market prep friendly! 

I think it’s important to have a balance between enjoyment and making money. Leaning way more towards enjoyment if it’s just a hobby 🫶🏽

Thank you !! Without enjoying it it’s no longer passion but just a pain in the butt lol

Yay I’m glad the video was helpful !! 🤍

Ugh they’re so cute tho.. I might try again 🤪

Thank you sm!! Im gonna try again bc it’s so cute.

I think charging for time works for some and not for others. It depends on how fast you crochet. I also just price based on how I feel like I said lol. So if something is annoying to make but cost is only like $10 I might be like ya know what I’m not letting this go unless someone pays $70 bc I hated making it that much so I’m not letting it go 🤣

The loaf cats are the best ! 🫶🏽

@@MJAlleywayCrochet I would have to agree with you that the cats are the best and cutest pattern. Could you please send me the pattern below this comment or by the comment

@@AmazingBeautifulBlindAlaina if you click on the link in the description there’s links to all the patterns I mentioned 🫶🏽

@@MJAlleywayCrochet thank you so much 😊

Welcome to the crochet community!! Crocheting is so much fun 🫶🏽

I freehand color changes. And to change colors I just insert my hook pull up a loop and instead of yarning over and pulling through to finish the single crochet I pull through with the new color. Just the pretty standard way.

Thank you !!

I’m glad it was helpful !! Good luck with your first market that’s so exciting !!

All the best on your first market 😊

Ugh I wonder if she’d made a video for it. I’m sure it’s so simple like someone else explained in my comments but it reads so confusing.

That’s okay! Seriously. I don’t know how long you’ve been crocheting but many people get faster the more they do it. Others never get “fast”. Cliché to say but I feel it’s about the journey. I might make something that takes me 10 hours but if I enjoyed it I’d do it again. I consider myself a fast crocheter but that came with lots of time and projects. People who crochet “slower” do better not charging by the hour. There’s many different methods to pricing but as I always say if it’s mainly a hobby price stuff however you want. I rather go and sell nothing than go and sell stuff for less than what I feel it’s worth. But for some they feel opposite.

@MJAlleywayCrochet I've been crocheting for about 2 months now! I know I'm really bad at putting pressure on myself to be better/faster than I should be at this point in time 😅🤣 I watch people crocheting on RU-vid, and they don't have to watch their hands, and it looks like they're going in fast forward, and I'm like... why can't I do that? Hahaha. But learning takes time, and I just need to keep reminding myself of that! Thank you for the reply! ❤️❤️

@@SeriouslyStitchin_ oh hunny you’ll get there !!!! I’ve been crocheting since I was 7 but consistently everyday for about a year and a half. I can crochet without looking if it’s just basic rounds. But I couldn’t a year and a half ago. It just takes doing it A LOT! I know the feeling but seriously don’t compare or put pressure on yourself. Just enjoy the journey and the rest will follow.

Unfortunately no I do not think so. It is a newer pattern by all from Jade and I’ve never seen anything like it till she released it ! It is super cool tho and worth it. Her patterns are written very well.
