I HAD A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY TO WORK…

I HAD A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH MAKE AND DO CREW. THEY TAUGHT ME HOW TO MAKE A HABIT SWEATER (S), STEP BY STEP. AND WHEN I GOT STUCK ON A STEP OF THE PATTERN, SOMEONE WAS ALWAYS THERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS I HAD.
COMPARED TO OTHER SITES I WAS ON. THEY ALSO TAUGHT ME HOW TO MAKE A CARDIGAN, PONCHO'S. I WOULD TRUST THEM ALWAYS.

Download Challenge

When I had trouble downloading a pattern I purchased, M&DC "talked" me through it. They went over and above what I expected them to do for me!

Five Stars for Make & Do Crew

I have made several of the patterns by Make & Do Crew. My first one was the Boho purse. It looked hard, but the directions were clear and there were pictures also. Next I made the Round Crochet Hippie Purse. I have made 3 of these so far, and they are fun and they turn out exactly like the pictures. Next, I bought the Campfire Cardigan pattern, and sat on that for awhile because I was afraid of getting it to fit. Next came the Slouchy Hippie Hat. I made this, followed the directions for making it fit, and it fit perfectly! Next, I made the Campfire Cardigan. With the pictures and videos and clear, concise directions, it turned out perfectly and it fit! I would highly recommend any pattern put out by Make & Do Crew. They are amazing and there is always help at hand if you need it.

One of My top Five Designers

I have been making Make & Do Crew patterns for a very long time now from blankets to sweaters to smaller projects some free and some paid. I have always found them to be well written. On the odd occasion I have run into a snag the support is there. I do find my gauge is sometimes a bit off, so if it is a wearable I always check that now.

MD&C has great well written patterns!

I can always trust patterns from MD&C!!! They are well written and easy to understand. If you have a problem, you can reach out to Jess and she will help you.
Her videos are extremely helpful and can get you through some sometimes tricky areas.
She's one of my favorite desginers!

Honest and warm vibes

Make & Do Crew is very open and is full of encouraging and enthusiastic members! There are many crocheters who are experienced that are willing to give honest advice and encouragement. They are REAL people and the patterns are tried and tested patterns. Not AI.
If you are new to crochet you would be very happy joining!

A Great Team of Crafters & Designers

From the patterns to the group page/forum, this team of crafters and designers are wonderful! Their patterns are well written and easy to follow, plus they are available to answer questions. Their support and the creation of a positive group environment have led to a steady increase in new members. Many members who have been part of their group for a while are also willing to help if they can and encourage all. I truly appreciate the teaching and education that happens, whether focused on patterns, technique, or navigating the chat forum. I also applaud their efforts to help us learn the difference between designer-created patterns vs the sneaky, poorly written AI versions popping up everywhere, along with understanding tools, yarn, and so much more! The Make and Do Crew are personable, kind, and super fun too!

I've been fallowing for about 9 months and definitely love their patterns. They're authentic and if you have any questions or get stuck on a certain stitch you have a really person to reach out to. Believe me I've definitely reached out many times and they helped out even when I felt like it was a stupid question but no question is stupid and they will help out with any you have I definitely love this place and would go to their website for ideas for other patterns anytime I need something else.

Quality pattern!

I just finished making the Dune Drifter cover up during the fun ‘Hexalong’ that Make and Do Crew hosted. It was a high quality pattern that gave me great results and I had it crocheted in three weeks. I’ve gone back to purchase more MADC patterns because I was so pleased with the simplicity in their approach to making wearables.
