How To Crochet Fidget Twister
Here we'll presents a quick and enjoyable project that can be used in multiple ways, as a fidget toy or a bath sponge when made with cotton yarn. This straightforward pattern requires minimal effort, with the most challenging part being the initial setup.
Materials Needed
- Yarn: Ronnie uses "Favorite Stripe" from Red Heart but mentions you can use any yarn, including variegated or solid colors.
- Crochet Hook: 5.5 mm hook.
- Scissors (for cutting yarn tails).
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Chain Foundation
- Start by chaining 15 stitches. There’s flexibility here; you can chain between 12 and 15 stitches.
- Note: There is no requirement for the chain to end on an even or odd number.
- Single Crochet Setup
- Work single crochets into the back humps of the chain.
- Insert your hook into the second chain from the hook and make one single crochet in each chain across. This will result in 14 single crochets if you chained 15.
- Folding and Twisting the Chain
- Fold the chain in half with the bottom facing up towards you.
- Rotate the bottom chain towards yourself, creating a twist in the chain.
- Join First Row
- Insert your hook into the first stitch (ensuring it looks like a regular stitch).
- Single crochet into the first stitch.
- In the next stitch, make two single crochets.
- Continue the pattern: one single crochet in the next stitch, two single crochets in the following stitch.
- Continued Twisting and Crocheting
- Continue the 1-2 single crochet pattern, maintaining the twist in the project.
- If you make a mistake (like doing two doubles instead of one), the pattern is forgiving and won't affect the final product.
- Building the Twister
- Keep crocheting in the established pattern until you reach your desired size.
- The project allows for flexibility in size—tiny, medium, or large—based on what's comfortable for you.
Conclusion
This crochet fidget twister provides a tactile and soothing tool, perfect for children or adults needing to keep their hands busy or calm their minds. The endless loop created by this pattern ensures continuous engagement. Additionally, if you're using this as a bath poof or scrubby, cotton yarn is highly recommended for its absorbent properties.
