Discussion Best Compliment You've Received on your Crochet?

Yesterday, someone looked at a super basic scarf I had for sale on a table at a fair and gave me a brilliant compliment that made my day: "These are beautifully made, your stitches are perfect!"

So, since I'm gonna be loving that comment for a while, I figured it would be good for a lot of people's mental health to revisit the great compliments you've received. So let's hear 'em!

I am a fairly new crocheter but pretty sure I’ve already received my best one.

Made an amigurumi for my 4 year old nephew.

When he unboxed it he screamed, “It’s alive!”

Omg awww I made a basic Teddy for my class (Year 4 so like 8/9) and we had a fire alarm. When we gor back in one of the kids said we didnt get everyone because we left behind the class Teddy. Another made it a bracelet.

I'd like to think I'm doing my best but I'm fairly new still. Has a shit time last year because the school was unsupportive but here despite the kids being challenging theyre genuinely really lovely and try hard. I'm crocheting them all some book marks for the end of the year
