Does Mikey or The Crochet Crowd use AI to generate patterns?

The quick answer is no, but AI is used in some elements of the business itself. What you don't see is the hours of mental development it takes to generate a pattern. Learn more about the design stages Mikey goes through.

Crochet Seagull Pattern in Mikey's Office

The crochet seagulls in Mikey's office are crocheted by a local crocheter called Idle Handscrochet. She specializes in selling Amigurumi locally here in Nova Scotia. The crochet seagulls are my most favourite thing ever. I call them my pattern gulls. Pattern. Pattern. Pattern.

Homemade Magnetic Yarn Unwinding Tool

Mikey got hooked on a yarn magnetic holder to unwind balls from the outside that are floating on a magnet. Since he found this several years ago, he's been using it daily, but realized there may be a problem with it. It created an opportunity to make a homemade contraption that he is currently using in his TV Room as he crochets.
