What crochet experience do I need?
Tessikin patterns are designed for experienced crocheters who are comfortable reading crochet instructions. Check the skill level, techniques and construction described on each product page.
If you’re unsure whether a particular design suits your experience, ask us before choosing.
Which language and crochet terms does the pattern use?
Check the individual product description for the pattern language and whether it uses US or UK crochet terminology. These details matter because the same stitch name can mean something different in each system.
If a detail isn’t clear, contact us with the pattern name before you order.
What should I check before buying?
Review the skill level, language, recommended yarn and hook, additional supplies, and the stated finished size. Read the description for the files and any visual guidance included with that particular design.

Your stitches.
Your creative touch.
A little guidance for making the design your own.
Can I change the colors, yarn or hook size?
You can explore a different palette for your project. Changing yarn weight, fibre, hook size or tension can also change the finished size, texture and amount of yarn needed.
Use the pattern’s recommendations as your starting point, and keep notes if you make substitutions.
What should I send if I get stuck on an instruction?
Send us the pattern name, your order number if available, and the page, round or step you’re working on. Explain what you expected and what’s happening instead.
A clear photo of your work and your current stitch count can help us understand your question.

Check Pattern Usage & Permissions and any terms supplied with the individual pattern before selling finished makes.
