Behold - Cthulu the Elder God. All limbs and tentacles, as if he just emerged from H.P. Lovecrafts' nightmares... Pattern by @craftyintentions.bsky.social 🧶 #crochet #häkeln #amigurumi #cthulu #lovecraft #eldergod #handmade #slowcraft

A green crocheted creature sits on a cut tree stump outdoors. The figure has a large rounded head, two glossy eyes with dark centers, and numerous curled green crocheted appendages extending from the lower part of the face. Two thick, bent legs extend forward across the stump, ending in pointed toes. Large wings spread upward and outward on both sides. The wings are crocheted in pale cream yarn with green edging and green curved lines across their surfaces. Behind the figure is the gray-brown trunk of the cut tree. Green ivy grows at the lower left, while dry brown grass surrounds the stump. Dense green foliage fills the upper background.

#FOFriday and I have something to show! Yippie! This Beauty here is the Nessie Shawl. It's my second version of it. It's textured, it's squishy and I'm over the moon with it! 🤩 Pattern: Nessie Shawl by SisHomemade Yarn: Two Custom Cakes from Wolltraum, 300g/1500m 3ply #crochet #häkeln #shawl #craft

A triangular crochet shawl hangs against a light-colored door. The shawl has an open, lace-like stitch pattern and a smooth gradient that shifts from pale blue at the top through lavender and soft pink to a deep purple along the lower edge. The fabric drapes evenly, with the point of the triangle centered and the sides falling symmetrically.

I made a little Yoshi for a friend. Pattern is from Greta Wings and I used Scheepjes Catona Yarn. I really like that for Amigurumi. I'm also quite proud how the embroidered eyes turned out. #crochet #häkeln #amigurumi #handmade

A small crocheted figure modeled after Yoshi sits on a wooden shelf. The figure is made with green yarn for the head and body, white yarn for the snout and belly, and orange yarn for the feet. Its large white eyes with black pupils face forward. Behind it stands a round decoration with a carved tree motif.

A crocheted sea creature resembling a squid or kraken is draped over a white mannequin torso printed with black floral designs. The creature is made from light green yarn with long, curling tentacles whose undersides feature rows of small, textured light gray suction cups. It has one large, glossy black safety eye on the side of its head and two small crocheted fins positioned behind the eye. The body and tentacles curve naturally over the mannequin, showing the shaping and stitch texture of the crochet work. The background is softly lit and out of focus.

A triangular crocheted shawl hangs from the top edge of a white door. The shawl has a smooth gradient that shifts from light peach at the top to medium orange, then to deep reddish‑brown at the bottom. The fabric is worked in open, lace‑like stitches that form repeating geometric patterns. Along the lower edge, the shawl has a decorative scalloped border. The door behind it is plain and unadorned, providing a neutral background that shows the color transition and stitch details clearly.

Progress on my Allyana Shawl for the #lightitupMAL . Featuring a guest appearance of a little fluffy butt. 😆 🧶 #crochet #häkeln #crochetsky #handmade

A partially completed triangular crochet shawl is laid flat on a light surface. The shawl is worked in horizontal bands of lace-like and textured stitch patterns. Its yarn forms a smooth gradient, shifting from a pale peach at the top to a deeper orange toward the lower edge. Near the upper left side of the shawl sits a dark container holding a ball of matching gradient yarn, with a crochet hook resting beside it. The project appears mid‑work, with the working yarn still attached to the shawl.

It starts today! It still feels a bit surreal that I'll be at the #FantasyBasel with an Artist Badge. 😱🤩 Come find me and many other amazing artists in Artist Alley in Hall 2.1. I'm at booth 550. #artistalley #crochetartist #convention

A craft fair stall displays a variety of handmade crocheted items arranged on a table covered with a blue cloth. A cream colored banner on the front reads “HOOK-A-LOOP by Tanja” and shows an illustrated cat holding a ball of yarn and a crochet hook. On the table and on wire racks behind it are numerous crocheted pieces, including colorful shawls, scarves, stuffed toys, and small decorative figures. The items are neatly organized, with bright colors such as red, orange, yellow, purple, green, and blue creating a vibrant display.

A promotional poster for Fantasy Basel shows a vividly illustrated fantasy character with blue skin, glowing orange eyes, and long purple hair. The character wears ornate purple and pink armor-like clothing with swirling patterns and holds a tall staff topped with a glowing, intricate design. They stand in a stylized forest filled with abstract tree shapes in shades of purple, gold, and blue, with small glowing particles scattered throughout the scene. Text on the poster reads: “FANTASY BASEL – THE SWISS COMIC CON. The festival for movie, game, cosplay and comic fans. May 14–16, 2026 | Messe Basel.”

My first love in crocheting, the thing that brings me the most joy are lacy, filigree shawls. With challenging structures that keep me interested. So it felt right that for the #lightitupMAL I would cast on one of them, to see if my fingers still remembered after making mostly Amigurumi lately.

A partially completed triangular crochet lace piece made with peach-colored yarn lies on a light gray surface. A crochet hook with a white tip and a pink, textured handle is inserted into the stitches on the right side of the work. To the left sits a teal fabric project bag holding a large gradient yarn cake that shifts from deep orange at the outside to pale peach on the inside. The yarn strand leads from the cake to the crochet piece.
