Black Lives Matter patch



Black Lives Matter patch




You can make one and sew it to a purse, hat, hoodie, anything!

The reason I'm making this free is to spread the message that BLACK LIVES MATTER.
I am so very heartbroken to keep seeing the news headlines filled with black people being brutally murdered.

It's not ok that this keeps happening.

I'm also upset that people on the internet seem to think Black Lives Matter is a terrorist organization.

It's not. The riots and violence breaking out is either

1) escalated by police or

2) white people using the movement as an excuse to be violent and rowdy (see: the UK BLM).


 "Black Lives MATTER is the bare minimum. Black lives are worthy. Black lives are beloved. Black lives are needed"

When people say Black Lives Matter, they are not saying "only black lives matter" or

"black lives matter more than yours," we are saying "black lives matter" period.

It's a complete sentence and a complete thought on its own.


Materials:

Black yarn

F (3.75 mm) hook

White yarn

Sewing needle


With black yarn and F hook:

Ch 10

Rnd 1 - 1 sc in second ch from hook and all stitches across (9) ch 1, turn

Rnd 2 - 1 sc in each st across (9) ch1, turn

Rnd 3 - 1 dec, sc 5, 1 dec (7) ch 1, turn

Rnd 4 - 1 sc in each st across (7) ch1, turn

Rnd 5 - 1 dec, sc 3, 1 dec (5) ch 1, turn

Rnd 6 - 1 sc in each st across (5) ch1, turn


Rnd 7 - 1 inc, 3 sc, 1 inc (7) ch1, turn

Rnd 8 - 1 inc, 5 sc, 1 inc (9) ch1, turn

Rnd 9 - 1 inc, 7 sc, 1 inc (11) ch1, turn

Rnd 10 - 1 inc, 9 sc, 1 inc (13) ch1, turn

Rnd 11 - 1 sc in each st across (13) ch1, turn

Rnd 12 - 1 dec, 9 sc, 1 dec (11) ch1, turn

Rnd 13 - 1 dec, 7 sc, 1 dec (9) ch1, turn

Rnd 14 - 1 dec, 5 sc, 1 dec (7) ch1, turn

Rnd 15 - 1 dec, 2 sc, 1 dec (4) ch1, turn (notice the missed stitch, this is to form thumb indent)

Rnd 16 - 2 dec, (2) ch1, turn

Rnd 17 - 1 dec


You can either finish off leaving a long tail for sewing or slip stitch a border around the whole fist, then leave a long tail for sewing





With white, sew the details for the fist.

    Especially after the pikachu ski mask incident.

    Crochet Isaac


    I've been playing this game a lot and it's awesomely disturbing. For those who don't know, this game is called The Binding of Isaac. This pattern is to crochet the main character. I do not own the character at all, he is a creation of Mr. Edmund McMillen, and he kindly allowed me to post this pattern.

    Well, I was going to take down ALL my patterns because some people were abusing the terms of use, but just because some shitty people took advantage of them, doesn't mean I should deprive the world of my free patterns.

    tentacle 4
    ch 21
    ~ slip stitch in 2nd ch from hook, sl st in next 2 sts, 1 sc in ea of next 4 sts, 2 sc in next st, 1 hdc in ea of next 7 sts, 1 double crochet in ech of next 5 sts, slip stitch to base of octo body, 3 stitches from where you started the tentacle chain

    same as tentacle 4

    Note: it is not important that they all be done differently, they will curl up no matter which tentacle pattern you follow, but they will curl a bit differently

    place eyes on the body in the front of the octo's body, on the 2nd to last row of single crochets. there should be 3 stitches visible in between the eye placement if you are using 13 mm eyes.

    Bottom
    ~ ch 2
    ~ 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook, slip stitch to first ch, bind off leaving a long tail

    make sure your octo is stuffed fully, then sew the bottom into the opening.

    other details, if you want to add suckers to the tentacles, use colored glue or felt pieces.
    real octopi have mouths with beaks at the bottom of their bodies, the stitches down here might look like a mouth if you use a different color

    you could make an alien creature or cthulhu like creature if you make a human like body instead of a bottom and attach it where you would the bottom.

    i'd love to see all yours! if you can, post them in the comments :)
