🧶 Live for 45 – Chenille or Cotton? YOU Decide Our Platypus! 🦆
It's decision time, everyone!
Over the next few weeks we'll be crocheting an adorable platypus together, but before we make the first stitch, YOU get to decide what it will look like!
Should our platypus be:
✨ Super soft and fuzzy using chenille yarn for that extra cuddly, realistic look?
OR
💜 Bright, colourful and fun in cotton yarn... perhaps even a purple platypus? After all, who says nature gets to make all the rules?
During this week's Live for 45, we'll compare the yarns, talk about the pros and cons of each, look at colours, and vote on what our community project will become. Your opinion will shape this project from the very beginning!
We'll chat about:
🧶 Chenille vs Cotton – which is best for amigurumi?
🧶 Colour choices
🧶 Durability and stitch definition
🧶 Ease of crocheting with each yarn
🧶 Which yarn will give our platypus the most personality!
So grab your favourite beverage, bring your latest WIP, and join us for 45 minutes of fun, laughs, and plenty of yarny discussion.
Will our platypus be fluffy and lifelike... or fabulously purple?
The choice is yours!
