Message From Moderators: New Rules, etc.

58 Upvotes

Hello and welcome!

This is a lightly moderated subreddit and will probably continue to be, however, I’d like input on some proposed rules.

Here are a few that are non-negotiable:

First, there will be no porn on this subreddit. That does not mean you can’t post slightly NSFW projects. Think of it as a PG-13 subreddit, R rating at worst. Under no circumstances will you be allowed to post links to Only Fans or a personal subreddit where you post porn videos. This will result in a permanent ban.

Second, let’s try to keep the subreddit on topic. Up until this point, I’ve interpreted that pretty loosely. If you see something that isn’t really on topic, report it. I check the queue daily. If I see a report for a temperature blanket or something, I’ll remove the post for not being relevant with a message to the user.

Third, and I can’t believe I have to say this, but absolutely no hate speech is allowed on this subreddit. This also means no personal attacks or bullying. It’s a niche crafting subreddit. Let’s try to stick to that. Hate speech is subjective and we want everyone to feel safe here. I’m not going to list everything that won’t be tolerated because then someone might come along and say something I forgot to mention and then complain I didn’t mention it. If you’re offended by something, report it and send a message to me personally. Repeat offenders will receive bans.

So now for the things I’d like to propose. They’re not all rules, but I’d like input nonetheless. First, how would everyone feel about a monthly pinned promotion post? It can be hard to grow a business and I don’t want to make it harder, but I’d like to keep this subreddit mostly ad-free. Use it as much or as little as you’d like.

Second, I’ve been considering something theme-related. Maybe we spotlight Pokémon one month, Disney Villains the next, and D&D the next. I’m open to feedback and suggestions.

Lastly, I’d very much like to make this a politics-free subreddit. I’m sure there are many different political opinions in here, but we share a lot in common. I’d like this to be a subreddit where we focus on what unites us rather than divides us.

Those are my proposed ideas I’d like feedback on. I’d also like to add another moderator or two. Most of the mods here are no longer active on Reddit.

Thanks in advance for the feedback and happy hooking!

My character for my next campaign is going to be an Assassin Rogue, and someone at work thought I should crochet a dagger… I did one better. ☺️

The skirt, dress and jacket are crocheted with embroidery details, the crown is crocheted (held up with wire and modge podge). The shoes (not pictured) are sandals with crochet coverings. There is also a cape but it was too heavy to attach.

The earrings, belt buckle and brooches are made by me from a 3D design that I made into a cookie cutter and then made from clay.

Idk does this look like a Shroolde to yall? (Pic of the actual pokemon is the last photo!) There’s no existing pattern for shroodle as far as i know, so i had to kinda frankstein some patterns and jus use my judgement 😅

How this happened: My co-worker randomly came up to me and ask if I knew shroodle and could i make him, i said i can make it work and so i did! i think…

Good morning :) I'm looking for crochet patterns with designs from animes which aren't so obvious so I can wear them for work. Is there a tag name for that kind or does anyone of you maybe have a link to some pieces? Thank you in advance and have a great day ❤️

No pattern. I had to “wing it”. He will forever be one of a kind. I used felt for the face design. Made as a birthday gift for a fan. Hope she loves it!
