AI Crochet Images and Patterns

 The Rise of AI in the Art World What do you think of this image? It's very pretty at first glance, isn't it? Does it make you immediately want to seek out the pattern to make them yourself? You're not alone. I took this image from a random page on Facebook that showed up on my newsfeed. I have no idea who originally made it. It's being shared by pages that appear to be run by bots, as the caption is always the exact same.  So What's the Problem? The problem is these crochet parrots are not real. That is not real crochet. The photo is generated by AI. How can you tell? Firstly, they are too perfect. Creating crochet birds that could sit like that on a perch without falling over would be challenging. The direction of some of the stitches doesn't make sense. If you zoom in, you can see the stitches on the head especially do not look like crochet stitches. The yellow feathers on the left bird's head look like real feathers, which you wouldn't be able to rep...

Why's It So Expensive? The True Cost of Handmade

 The True Cost of Handmade One thing a lot of crocheters often hear is how expensive their handmade items are. Commonly alongside a comment about how you could just buy the materials and do it yourself. Do you do that anywhere else? Do you tell the supermarket that apples are too expensive, so you'll just buy the seeds and grow your own?  Handmade items are just that, handmade. This means that someone has put a lot of time and effort into learning a skill, and used that skill, and yet more time, to create an item. Many business people say that 'time is money', but doesn't that mean we should value our time? No matter what job you do, you expect to be paid for your time and effort, so why should that be any different for someone who has created art with their bare hands? When you are buying a handmade item from a small business like mine, you are getting a carefully crafted item that has been made with love. It's also a business, so making a profit is important, othe...

Crochet Basics Part 2 - Introducing New Stitches

  Crochet Basics Part 2 Hi, welcome back. This is part 2 of my crochet basics series introducing crochet and teaching you how to get started. In the first part we went over the basics of beginning a piece of crochet, the slipknot, the chain stitch, double crochet (single crochet in the US) and how to fasten off at the end. Today we're going to cover a couple of new stitches you can use for different textures. The half-treble and treble crochet stitches are fairly easy to work. These stitches are taller than the double crochet. You'll see what I mean.  Half-Treble Crochet (htr) Half-treble is between double and treble crochet in height. It is worked very similarly to a double crochet, the difference is you wrap the yarn around your hook before pushing it into the next stitch, then you pull the yarn through, pulling up another loop. This leaves three loops on your hook instead of two. You wrap the yarn around the hook again and pull it through all three loops together. That's...
