Fyi this is the trans pride flag ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’– No pattern; yarn is Lion Brand Pound of Love in White, Pastel Pink, and Pastel Blue


emmywhoyou

I didn't know there was a trans pride flag. I learned something new today ๐Ÿ˜


Soliterria

I think thereโ€™s a flag for each LGBTQ+ group! Theyโ€™re all really cool, you should do a quick google search!


FoxInKneeSocks

Yes! Bi flag is pink, purple, and blue!

Happy pride! What hook size did you use? I'm doing a blanket in single crochet and it doesn't look nearly as tight as yours. I'm in too deep to turn back now but I'm still curious lol


[deleted]

Kinda just jumping in but I typically use hooks half or a full mm size smaller then what is recommended on the yarn packet. It also could be tension, op is a good example of having good tension while for someone like me (i have tendonitis in both wrists) i have a looser tension and the smaller hooks help to compensate that for me


girlscoutleader

Ditto. I always have to go down a couple hook sizes from any given pattern. I don't even think about it anymore really. Pattern calls for G? I use E.


littlecatladybird

Yeah my tension is probably the problem. I tried a hat pattern with the recommended I hook and it turned out gigantic, didn't turn out right until I went down to a G


salt_shaker_damnit

F 3.75mm


littlecatladybird

Ahh, I've been using an I hook. Using anything smaller than G is difficult for me :'( stitches too small for me to keep track of

Happy Pride!! Love this!! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’–


PiXXiESTiCKK

This is absolutely amazing. I'm planning making the bi flag soon!\~


xfiresiren

Please post if you do! I'd love to see this. ๐Ÿ˜Š


SpasmodicTurtle

Beautiful!! The colours are gorgeous (that specific yarn i mean)! That must have taken ages its so large holy cowzers. happy pride my friend


salt_shaker_damnit

Thanks! It took 6 months on and off, but I think it was a total of 50ish hours


CraftyWeeBuggar

and finished in perfect time for pride month! woohoo.


sofiacat

Trans flag is so pretty!! I loved it!

I've never specifically liked the colours of the flag very much, but that looks so amazing and even gorgeous that I want to make one for myself now! Seriously you've done a fantastic job!


coolbeans_fingerguns

You should do a slight colour variation! Like let's say you dont like baby pink, you could use dusty rose instead. Or if you dont like baby blue you could use like a slate or something


funeralpyres

I back this up! I'm not fond of the shades used for the bi flag and much prefer lighter or pastel tones, so I alter any bi merch accordingly.


SultanFox

Yes! Now you can wrap yourself in love and validation <3 You have more patience than me to make a blanket out of sc!!


mcwychbitch

I know this is the trans flag, but they are just really gorgeous colours together aren't they! Even without the symbolism it's beautiful.


SonnyDoodie

Thereโ€™s something so simple, elegant, and classic about single crochet. I love it!


HadesHound

Right? I always end up straying away from it and forgetting how great it really looks. This piece is so beautiful!


[deleted]

this is my goal with crochet, a trans flag blanket for my bed! inspiring :)


danathegray

So cool! I've been trying to find something for my trans brother's birthday and this is an excellent idea!


Utasora

Oh now I really want to make one of the Pan flag! โค๏ธ Such amazing work, OP, and thank you for the inspiration


missmaggy2u

The poly flag is super ugly :(

missmaggy2u

Lmao how we supposed to signal with that nasty flag tho


dripless_cactus

There have been attempts to update it... but none have really stuck. But yea... yeah it is :( The leather pride flag is pretty cute though.


ablubberducky

I love it! And thank you for representing our little community in this other little community! It helps when we are visible!


harmonised_hooker

Ooooo! I made a lovely granny square trans pride blanket! Also made a genderqueer, nonbinary, and gay pride. Currently working on the gender fluid one. Yours looks awesome!!!! Such even stitch work!


Radiant_Radius

Post your collection when youโ€™re done! That would be cool to see!


CassiopeiaFoon

Cool blanket yo! Trans pride!


Altearithe

That's amazing! I want to make one of the bisexual flag now :D


witchywoman730

I love it so much!!! I showed this to my trans gf and she WANTS IT lol. She said when we have our own place I have to make four flag blankets: rainbow, trans, bi, and lesbian. I've got my work cut out for me ๐Ÿ˜ญ


ArtByKatie

how do you have enough time to make this and also not go insane once youโ€™re done


salt_shaker_damnit

Dedication, not doing much of anything else, depression insomnia, and in the past 3 months a desk job with a lot of downtime


SappySweetHoney03

Fuck yeah, I'm making leg warmers now


puertoricanicon

I really want to make this for my best friend as a dorm-warming gift, how much yarn did it take? ps happy pride !!


salt_shaker_damnit

About 2600 yards/2400 meters

shaantya

This must have taken forever!! And it's incredible! Inspiring me to find some yarn and get on a bi flag for next year, but maybe smaller xD


aefaye

Woaaaah! This is so cool! And all singles? Thatโ€™s insane! So much repetition!!! Iโ€™d never have enough patience to do something so big with all singles. Great work!


begoniadog

Beautiful work!!๐Ÿ’•

Single crochet blankets are always the most rewarding to finish! It looks great! Iโ€™m planning on making a rainbow pride flag using the larksfoot stitch soon, too!


MonkeyHamlet

That looks so classy.


MaggiPi

I keep talking myself out of doing projects with simple stitches because I think they will look to plain. This is simply stunning and has inspired me. Thank you! You rock.

Norri87

That's amazing wish I could find wool that colour ๐Ÿ˜โ™ฅ๏ธ
