Description
Cursed Crochet offers you the unique opportunity to crochet hilariously upside-down versions of cartoon characters, video game heroes, and childhood toys. This is the first-ever AI-generated crochet book that showcases the extremely weird, yet delightfully bad-good patterns made by a computer.
What happens when you ask ChatGPT to write an amigurumi pattern? In early 2023, the groundbreaking AI platform was tasked with creating adorable crochet patterns of beloved characters and our favourite animals. The results were charmingly strange versions that will both delight and horrify you, including:
- Squooshward, a confused adaptation of Spongebob's grouchy neighbour
- Beige Space Baby, a flesh-coloured horror in the general shape of beloved Baby Yoda
- Burfy, an even more terrifying version of the cursed '90s children's toy
- Oopa, a deranged interpretation of Aang's trusty flying bison
- And more!
Whether you're a beginner crocheter or an advanced yarn worker, grab your copy and stitch along with these patterns that are completely wrong, slightly strange, but above all, hilariously fun.
