I'm making a few of these for a friend. They are about 6" long and have some pipe cleaners on the inside to help them keep shape if you give them a little bend!

Oh my god they're fabulous! I've never quite been able to figure out what Ribblr is exactly, but this does make me want to give it another look ๐
Honestly, I only use it for the convenience of being able to keep track of which row you're on (it took this pattern to introduce me to ribblr)! I had been jumping through hoops to make most of my PDF patterns like this in some way or another. I even dedicated my tablet to the process, so I wouldn't lose my place! (Well, that and comic books)
I've tried the social media aspect of that site, but I'm so far removed from the chatroom style of interaction that it just doesn't really appeal to me. Maybe that aspect is geared towards younger, hipper, more social people than me!
As an older, terminally un-hip person myself, I expect that's probably it indeed! Dang kids, off my lawn, etc etc.
A place for all who enjoy the art of crochet
