Check out this awesome way to create your own amigurumi patterns! I have a really difficult time writing patterns and crocheting without patterns, personally. I think this neat idea may come in handy for future pattern ideas that I will certainly refuse to pay for! So, without further ado, I offer you a Crochet Amigurumi Pattern Generator!
Which, by the way, brings me to a tricky topic. I cannot stand when people charge for patterns...I completely understand charging for the finished product. What I do not understand, is why I would pay $5 for an online, handwritten, likely to have errors pattern from a complete stranger, from who knows where! If you have created a fabulous pattern, why not be a doll and share it with fellow crafters for free, or a dollar or something?! It's full profit, assuming it cost you nothing to write the pattern! Ugh. If I had the skill and time to write patterns from scratch, I would spread them all over for the world to grip up for free, and charge only for the product if requested!
Am I alone in this argument? I can't get over it. I can get a crochet pattern book for $12 full of neat stuff...so why would I pay $5 for ONE pattern?! Rude. I really wonder how many people actually pay for such things.
Holler if you feel me.
