Making Crochet Cryptids using Witness Descriptions

[@MaiLolita]

As much as I love the Mothman, I would love to see your cutesy style applied to the Flatwoods Monster. I feel like she doesn't get enough love and there would be a lot of interesting shapes to work with! Also the Fresno Nightcrawlers; they're just goofy little guys.

[@helloolive295]

Yesss Fresno nightcrawlers!!!!

[@fish_envy]

i love both of those!

[@CuteGothChick]

I would love her take on Springhill Jack.

[@Trinidad_Delgado]

I was gonna suggest The Flatwoods Monster!!

[@jasper_dogrobot]

I love the jersey devil looking on as his chupacabra friend took shape

[@celadore_]

I love that I am not the only one that uses stitch markers to hold clothes togther!!

[@ComplicatedKnots]

I use bobby pins for stitch markers, and stitch markers as safety pins XD

[@carly-annsharps2847]

Hi! I really loved your cartoonish style for these cryptids. I love when creepy things are made cute. I don’t actually crochet myself but I’m trying to learn. I’d love to see you make another part of this with the Loch Ness Monster, Mothman and the Squonk ( a cryptid from Pennsylvania in the US) described as “the Squonk is, physically and actually, a pig. It's covered in warts and has cauliflower ears covered in wax and hair. Its tusks are yellow and crooked and its rheumy eyes weep constant tears. It has four legs (Three and a half if the right hind leg is transparent).”

[@ComplicatedKnots]

I've done Loch Ness before, but the squonk sounds like fun!!

[@Marsi-P]

I was gonna ask for the squonk too! It’s constantly crying because of how ugly it is and if sighted turns into a puddle of tears.

[@CherCyborg]

If you're trying to learn to crochet then you crochet! Keep it up I'm sure you'll do great things

[@diana_rayne]

The Bunyp is my favorite but they're all wonderful. I like that you added the hind legs as it made the cutie less walrusy. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

[@LilBlueOnk]

I love how by the end of this you've made a new pokemon starter lineup. They're so cute, and I love your method for coming up with unique looks for them all!

[@feathersflight]

So cuuuute! I hope you do this again! My favorite cryptid is the jackalope, but that's probably too straightforward (it's just a jackrabbit with antelope horns/antlers).

[@ComplicatedKnots]

Jackalope still makes the list! I could make that little dude so freaking cute...

[@feathersflight]

​@@ComplicatedKnots Yessss! :D :D

[@Anne5440_]

Oh I want a jackalope! I have one pattern for one, but yours, I know, will be great. They are from Wyoming but have been reported in other northwest states. I'm sure you know about sasquatch. Originally from Washington state wilderness down to northern California.

[@MaxKarmaCat]

Or a wolpertinger for a bit of extra detail and options! Fangs, antlers, and wings on some little forest critter? Perfect!

[@EchoCian]

I love them so much. My suggestions are Mothman, Bigfoot, and Nessie for some classics. Or it might be fun to do a different version of the chupacabra or bunyip, since there are so many variants. There's also the stellar's sea ape, but honestly it sounds a lot like the bunyip.

[@BearlyAwake13]

Pretty sure she's already done Nessie!

[@megangroom6670]

Your free hand is so awesome! I wish I could free hand it like that. I also wanted to say the stitch maker clasp on your cover is clever. I love it!❤

[@tydino101]

13:00 , thay way you made him look with the back legs makes me thing of an old concept of mine for a show/movie i want to annimate, i called it sea pups and it looked nearly identical minus the teeth. XD

[@TheCrippledCrafter]

@ComplicatedKnots just wondering if i have missed some news? I'm missing my Hey it's Thursday fix!

[@hag8752]

IVE NEVER thought about crochet being such an amazing 3d artform but omg i am watching you religously now.

[@Muted_Marcus]

I'll be honest, I don't want to give into my urge to buy crocheting stuff or too much yarn because I just started learning how to knit. Coming across your videos has made it difficult because watching you crochet is so fun.

[@Anne5440_]

I do my creatures and dolls in amigurumi and I knit the clothes if they have clothes. Knit clothes and more stretchy and easier to put on the doll.

[@Bottiboo]

Hello, swede here! I think a really interseting cryptid you could try to make would be storsjöodjuret, it's a swedish cryptid hence why I like it so much. It's described as having a 10 meter long and almost 1 meter thick body, humps along it's back and a dog or cat like head, I do believe it's described as having legs as well, not sure though🤔 Also amazing video as always, you content has gotten me interseted in crochet!😁

[@queryalways]

I love your cryptids :) The bunyip is my fave; though my real fave are the Dropbears based down at Wilson's Promontory, terrifying, but a local attraction!! ;) I love how the bunyip developed from happy walrus-bunbun to bunyip ;) beautiful & creative work :)

[@boxerdogsmom]

Mothman is the cryptid I am interested in. I’m making your bumble bee at the moment, then I’m going to do the deathshead moth. 💜

[@nikkih8738]

I Love your creations. Your imagination knows no bounds with you come up with. Love watching how they come out just amazing ❤

[@danielarejgar]

What a fun channel. I'm glad the algorithm recommended you.

[@dwaalatticsalt7886]

This would probably be too simple, but one of my favorite cryptids are the Fresno Nightcrawlers😂🥰 They’re oddly so cute to me😍😍

[@ZeshaTheCat]

Got distracted and am just now watching this, but this is exactly what I was hoping for with the kangaroo dragon! Thank you for suggesting this video to me. 🥰

[@UFOCrochet]

Big Foot/Yeti/ Abominable snowman. I love the Jersey Devil he looks good in red.

[@stephaniereese6175]

Did anyone else go look up what all of these cryptids look like? The images of the chupacabra were a little bit disturbing. Love you and the things you can come up with❤️❤️❤️ I take so much unspoken from you.

[@Noveltea1113]

Adorable! I always get the urge to make my own patterns or freehand when I watch your videos because the whole process just looks like so much fun :)

[@thesoupofthebrain2446]

mothman is huge right now. i really enjoy sucubus, domovoy, and kasogonaga (rainbow anteater looking sky spirit).

[@bethrobarts2314]

I love your cryptids, they are adorable. I think the bunyip is my favourite.

[@reginayoung4224]

Super cute! I love your top also!! 😊❤

[@ComplicatedKnots]

Thank you! It's a granny square cardigan, really easy to make :)

[@Gemma-Amigurumi]

i love watching you designe and make it. You will be my teacher for ever 😃. greatings from the Netherlands 👍

[@JunieBJonesing]

I’m always so excited for your videos!

[@ComplicatedKnots]

Thanks for watching :)

[@nyuh]

whoaa what an interesting video title cant wait to watch it tomorrow after i sleep

[@uschioz]

OMG, these are fantastic (😉) - I really don't know which one I like best. You make me want to take my yarns and hook and just lock myself into a corner and start making Cryptids. Thank you so much 🥰

[@Anne5440_]

These are super. Every chupacabra photo I have ever seen looks like a sickly, mangy large coyote. You did well with yours. I loved the tip about dragon spines, which that definitely is. I'm trying get ready to make dragons. I have a unicorn to make for a granddaughter first. I think your using a curved needle is brilliant! I keep mine in my main needle book so I can find it easily. I'm a beginner with amigurumi but have been doing needlework and sewing for decades. You are showing me how to create detail.

[@shirleycarter2451]

What a great idea 💡 👏 your such an inspiration ❤

[@roahir]

Super adorable! And my fave cryptid is the swedish Skvader. Body and head of a forest hare but wings and tail of a wood grouse.

[@panbeanweirdo1157]

I absolutely love these adorable takes on these cripts. And would absolutely love to see your take on other cripted like moth man, wendigos/wendys, skin walks, those would be so interesting to see

[@Wamiba]

All are great but the bunyp is absolutely marvellous 😍

[@watermelon_dragon]

Bunyp is my favorite with his halflidden eyes, spots all over and tusks ❤😊

[@brandiehire7983]

Great job on all three. Can't wait to see what you do next week.

[@rebeccamcteague3675]

As someone who lives near Jersey, I can see your Jersey Devil creating a cozy home for itself in the Pine Barrens ❤️

[@Kamo7731]

I just started making cryptids myself and was so excited to see your designs would love to see your version of cute cthulhu kraken or maybe a kelpie 🧡🧡🧡

[@louisaschneider5922]

I only recently found your videos but I've been enjoying them so much!! If you ever make another cryptid video I would love to see a cute little crochet mothman

[@Thebestfroggy]

Omg I love the chupacabra! I need the pattern for that! You should make a furby next! Maybe you could use a bobble stitch for the fur as many including me don’t have the materials for fluff!

[@ashes4moo]

I'm a big fan of the Kraken! Back in time, some sailors believed Krakens could be miles wide!

[@ClauPego]

I loved all of them, but the Bunyip is just adorable 🤩

[@missykim510]

omg SO AWESOME! These guys remind me so much of Pokemon. I'm glad you included a cryptid from Australia. I didn't know if you had such legends or not.

[@tydino101]

4:15 i like how it actually looked good blurred, i'm right here and it's already amazing! :O

[@sunnyscales]

My favorite cryptids are the Lochness monster and moth man! I really enjoyed your videos and you’ve inspired me to start crocheting :)

[@Bob-iw6fq]

I would love to see you crochet a yeti. Or a sasquatch/bigfoot.

[@earcher]

I think we absolutely need to see your take on the Moth Man!

[@WildwoodStudio]

Love your videos! You’re so skilled. I followed one of your tutorials, it was fantastic. These guys are so cute ☺️

[@MamaLooji]

Your videos always make me happy :D I'm not sure if its a Cryptid or more a mythical creature but I love to see a Kappa! They're these Japanese frog-like lads

[@lisastone633]

As always….. Excellent job❣️ Love them all❣️🥰

[@Greygarg]

This is such a great idea! I love all three but the Chupacabra is my favourite. How about trying a Wolpertinger? I'd love to see your take on it.

[@fishwizard]

the bunyip is so cute!! reminds me of a grumpy old man two cryptids i'd love to see is tsuchinoko who's essentially a fat snake (technically a yokai but alas) and a thylacine (still not a cryptid but some say they're still out there!!)

[@betsyvanek9275]

Moth Man? in your line. of mysteries would be so easy for you I'm sure! much love for your mad skills❤

[@Nachtschatten1235]

I love all of them!!!! And I would absolutely love a pattern of the Jersey Devil ❤❤❤

[@lyndasmith593]

This is so cute. I love the way you did it and the colors you did it in I give you 10 out of 10 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@cannibalpotato11]

Im obsessed with cryptids so i know so many but u should do Mothman and I really like the Fresno Nightcrawler although that one would probably be simple.

[@ComplicatedKnots]

I looked at mothman for this! I was worried I was going to just make a moth. Not that moths aren't great.

[@cannibalpotato11]

@@ComplicatedKnots Yeah fair enough and you've already made really cool moths!

[@piperrose6837]

I am adopting the Bunyip and I am holding them gently

[@stileswinters6912]

I need them all! You must release patterns!

[@GenevieveHoward]

Love your style! Genius amigurumi making there!

[@23TheDragonLady23]

i absolutly love your interpretation of the jersey devil! i know you said the mouth on that one was hard, but id say it was totally worth it in the end!!

[@nyuh]

okay i just finished watching this and whoa theyre awesome i love how at the end theyre a red green blue trio (rgb ftw !!) also like the part where you used creepy music but whats shown is the most adorable creechrs ever XD

[@OrcaGrace22]

When working in the round, you can create a straight seam by chaining one, first stitch in the same space, do your row, slip stitch into the first stitch when you get back around (not the chain 1), chain one, and work the next row starting in the same space, repeat. I’m sure there are better explanations of this and I’m still experimenting with it on odd shapes, but it makes a pretty seam.

[@kylepalizzi3729]

These look amazing. I'd love to see you create a sasquatch/bigfoot.

[@mischiefgoblin9102]

Mothman and the Fresno nightwalkers are my favourite cryptids xD

[@Mielikkiii]

with the colour choices they look like a bunch of starter Pokémon!

[@astrospeck]

omg PLEASE if you decide to try and write out patterns or anything for these three, i would use them in a heart beat 😭😭 i love cryptids and these are so precious!! i instantly recognized the jersey devil from your thumbnail and want to have one of my very own lol

[@MLBoom]

You're so amazing for this. The only thing I love as much as crochet, is cryptids. I'm making a cutesy Mothman right now. I'd really like to see an Ozark Howler- which is the closest cryptid I have to me. ❤

[@bambiikay1906]

Oh my gosh I really hope you do this again!! My favourite cryptid is the wendigo..a lot of games and movies have tried to be creative with its design but I’d love to see what you do for it!!😃

[@robocalico419]

This is such a cute idea!!! Since you’ve already done my favorites in this video, i’d like to suggest my friend’s favorite: the fresno nightcrawlers!!

[@teresascrochetandanimals]

Definitely need a tutorial on this 😮 love it 🎉🎉🎉

[@Crowmouse6]

I would looove to see your take on the Mothman of Point Pleasant!!!!❤❤❤❤

[@ajquadarella3693]

My favorite cryptids are the Fresno Nightcrawler and Mothman lol. I love these so much! 😭❤️

[@Luke-uf3jw]

I really like the outcome of these. I would love to see you make a wendigo ❤

[@DrawingShadou]

these turned out so cute! i would love to see you make my favorite; Mothman or a Cockatrice in a future video! :D

[@Sharkeyscrochetcarnival]

Cryptids are some of my favorite things! Thank you for making this video! Would you consider doing a pattern for any of them? Either way I greatly enjoyed watching it and I hope you make another!

[@maribelrichesin0801]

Mothman would be such a fun one to see you make! I play a lot of fallout 76 and they have lots of cool creatures!

[@Maria-ug3pw]

They look so cute! Would love to see a lusca (usally described as a shark-octopus hybrid) in your style

[@danielecampbell7850]

I love the Bunyp, although I had never heard of it before. I don't know if it is considered a cryptid or just a cute cartoon, but I'd love to see you try a Jackalope. I like your cartoony style, while all my other non-crochet KZbinrs are more into the horror or realism side. Keep up the fun!

[@katelillo1932]

As you were doing the sketches for the Jersey devil I was like, is that a dragon? And then you said the same thing and I cracked up 😅 I loved this video, such a fun concept!

[@AleahSchlachter]

I would absolutely love to see you make Nessie (aka the Loch Ness Monster)!!!

[@millyboop2047]

these are so cute! i'd love to see maybe a jackalope 🐇🦌 maybe a lop-eared one, that would be adorable ♥

[@WingedMapu]

Chupacabra gives me some corgi vibes and it's adorable! x33

[@barbaralewis4893]

My Oh My YOU ARE SOOOOOOO AMAZINGLY TALENTED❣️❣️❣️❣️Thank you soooo much for sharing that talent with us❤️🙏🏼❤️Sincerely, barbie, S.E. OHIO

[@sugarbabie1681]

YES i see some of my suggestions i love them

[@lavenderwolfbound5886]

My cryptid for my state is the loveland frog/frogman and its just a 4 foot tall humanoid frog 🐸

[@sharidixon4140]

My favorites are MOTHMAN and the Wendigo. But like I want to make these guys. The chupacabra is so cute though

[@kierkat]

Mothman and the lockness monster are my favorites and I would love a pattern for them❤

[@cannibalpotato11]

I LOVE CRYPTIDS! I love this so much! ❤❤❤

[@ComplicatedKnots]

I did my best! 😁

[@Redfoxart52]

It’s AWESOME 👏!

[@jenk704]

I love this idea! Also if you make another video on cryptids, please try the mothman and the Fresno nightcrawlers ❤

[@lisalindemuth5714]

Thank you for doing this. I am not a designer, but would love to make cryptids for a Bigfoot festival.

[@xFaylinnx]

The chupacabras has for some reason become my favorite of this 3 xD maybe it’s the Latina in me. Great work as always!

[@lorriedanielle9822]

This needs to be a series. We need Bigfoot and Mothman lol

[@icefox94]

the jackalope is a personal favorite cryptid. i also really like the leshy. it's a... celtic? forest guardian that just kinda chills in its forest. it only attacks you if you enter its forest with ill intentions.

[@ericius-yy4md]

leshy is from slavic mythology! he is usually depicted as an old man covered in vegetation, but can also shapeshift!

[@donutshark2013_og]

I really want to take my own spin on this. I kinda want to do this with perler- I guess the best way to make my own design is to sketch and turn that into a pattern 🤷‍♀️ I want to make some of my favorite cryptids but, maybe I should make some spookier bois to face my fears. My art style is pretty silly and cartoony so I think it could work for cute-ifying them :)

[@IsabellaTK]

New subscriber! I wanted to ask. Would if be possible for you to post two or three videos a week on how to crochet a Pokémon. Perhaps starting from the start of the dex to the very end? I’m very new to crochet and would like to make my own instead of paying 50 bucks for one

[@fae6262]

some suggestions: Kappa, Cactus Cat, Wampus, Fresno Nightcrawler, and Loveland Frogmen

[@juanitadaniels7511]

Love the bunyip but I'd use browns and greens, theyre supposed to live in murky billabongs, so a slimy headress too....

[@tydino101]

happy thursday

[@metasymphony]

Thank you for including the bunyip, I love them! Where do you get your safety eyes, I tried the Amazon ones but they are not very good quality imo
