I’m from the southern states and I’ve never heard anyone say the “o” except a scientist or someone like that. lol! 😊 Thank you for showing a closed mouth option. The open toothy hissing and growling mouth is kind of unsettling to me since I have been up close and personal with a couple of these little screaming creatures. lol!
Today I broke up with my girlfriend, I had a nervous breakdown and to distract myself I went to TH-cam in search of music. and suddenly this video so randomly ended up in my recommendations. guess what I'm doing now? Right. thank you very much, these cuties saved my psyche, now I will arrange the personal life of my crochet friends instead of suffering 😂💗💗
I finally completed my screaming possum this afternoon! I had all the parts done, then I just chickened out on the assembly. But I just followed your directions & they were very clear. Probably the most challenging thing I’ve made so far, and he’s so adorable & well worth the effort. I made it as a surprise for a friend whose family loves possums- can’t wait to give it to her! TY for making this tutorial for us. Update: I gave the possum to my friend & her husband tonite as we played cards together. She was so touched that I wld make it for her, and throughout our card game, the possum often made angry hissing sounds depending on which team was winning or losing 😂
I've only crocheted for 2 months and successfully crocheted this adorable opposum! Took 2 days! Thank You so much for the wonderful video! Now i feel I can do more advanced work!
First found this channel two days after a frog pattern was posted when I was looking for a frog pattern, been checking every Thursday since and now I see the perfect Valentine's gift for my boyfriend, I love this channel and your work.
Congrats on this pattern! From the very moment I saw it, it gave me Tasmanian devil's vibes, which is great 'cause I've always wanted to make a Tasmanian devil amigurumi. So I think I'll go for it
I love this pattern so much!! I'm currently making this adorable lil one, and I'm realizing... they need a matching raccoon buddy, one just as derpy and attitude-y. Maybe even... a skunk buddy for the ultimate triumvirate of trash buddies!
Thank you very much for teaching me how to do this opossum, is for my mother's birthday, it turn out to be so so cool and detailed, is beautiful, i really appreciate you sharing all this process with me ❤❤🎉🎉
I love them! I’m getting my supplies together to make a whole family of them. I think they will go over great in my part of the world 1:14:34 the Deep Southern states of the USA. 🇺🇸 We love possums and armadillos! Can you do an armadillo that will roll up like the Rolly Polly? 😊
I found you over at Ravelry and I just can't believe how adorable your creations are, like ALL of them. Seriously. Makes me want to crochet a whole zoo of your critters, mythical or otherwise. ❤
Great idea! I don't buy safety eyes, I normally embroider them but I feel like that wouldn't be the best for these big eyes, so I'm definitely going to try this.
I play dnd with a few friends except we are woodland creatures and the plot is always very wholesome to match our characters. I play as Stabby, the opossum, and the moment I saw this pattern, I knew I had to crochet her.
Most people omit the "o" and just say possum, though we know it's there. XD I gotta say, this is one of my favorites of your patterns so far, but I'm in love with forest critters and opossums are amazing. Gonna be making one of these little guys for my fiancé. XD
watch your videos really inspires me to try things over my comfort zone 💖💖 i love your creativity and ideas e sim!!! quero ser igual você quando crescer 🤕
The technique you're using to make the back texture is called mosaic crochet. Recently went down a mosaic crochet rabbit hole. Also...I love your work!!!
@louiesloops this is right up your alley! Shall the trolls have an army of opposums? Possums - today’s Trojan horse. Pretend to be dead… wake up & infiltrate. I love it. So clever.
Good idea, but you have to start with something easy because that cute little opossum is not easy to make. You'll just get frustrated if you start with this
As others have mentioned the grey body work is called mosaic crochet a wonderful woman from Iceland has lots of it on her channel. Her name is Trinna Thordorttir.. ok spelling might not be perfect here but it’s close ..love you possum
Sooo. I am disabled and unable to make crochet. I love this screaming possum motif. I want to make a screaming possum crochet head helmet mask kinda like the deadmau5.
I just watched the entire video. They are so captivating. This will be the 4th thing I have crocheted. I have done 3 bees. If this goes well, I shall make 7 more for the people in my stich and bitch. We are all living in the southern US. Opossums are frequent visitors.
My mom found someone who posted a photo of this on Facebook. She told me to make one (I'm assuming, as a joke) but I found this tutorial, and decided to make this and give it to her on mothers day (which is tomorrow [technically today because it's 12:30 am])
You made me laugh so much. Thank you!!! 😆 Not only an adorable & funny creature but an awesome & hilarious presentation of the pattern. And the way u displayed & highlighted the pattern line by line on the screen. You rock!! 😁 You remind me of me, the silly/crazy parts. LoL. 😂 Thanks, I gonna buy the pattern too. Love it so much!! Can’t wait to start. My friends will love them. Plan to make one for each of my besties. The Private nick name for our group is the “Crazy Bi+ches”. 🤣. love u complicated, 😄👍🏻
I think this pattern is super cute!! I’m trying to make this with plush yarn and was wondering what you think would work to make the pink mouth pieces more flat.? It domes so much I don’t think it’s going to work with the top half of the head.
It looks to me that you really have to stretch them in to place especially on the top jaw. And because you have that pocket under the roof, you can make it work. Maybe try a looser tension too?
would it be possible if i could get a yardage count for each color so i know how big a skein i have to buy? if it's listed in the video already please let me know, adorable pattern !!
Im making this pattern but with fluffy yarn (size 8 hook). When I make the inside pieces for the mouth, they curze/bow in very much. To the point, it looks more like the beginning of a stuffy instead of a semi-flat triangle. What am I doing wrong or is this just normal for fluffy/bigger yarn?

When picking up patterns from sources like Ravelry, if the pattern doesn't say which stitching notation it uses (which they often don't), is there a way to tell if it's US, UK or another notation? It seems totally random which notation people are using for any given pattern. This has become quite the problem with globalization, since a "double crochet" can be any of like three different stitches depending on the notation.
Hi. Most people us the US terms, but it might help if you check which country the designer is located in… in my experience the UK sometimes uses the UK terms, but many UK designers are using US terms now. We really need these terms clarified OR just changed to US terms (which totally make more sense to me) 😜
Hi friends!! Has anyone made one in plush yarn? I’m almost done- I used parfait chunky. Everything came out great except for the gums/teeth….I really struggled with that part! 😂 I couldn’t get the teeth “right”. Not sure how to adapt that part of the pattern.
Can you teach me how to write my own crochet chart (pattern)? I have a share like this. As for sketching, I can do it very well, but I don't know how to write crochet chart (pattern).I don't know what technique to use to create such a shape. For example: I want to make a star crochet.But I don't know how to form parts such as star wings. I don't know how to use ch, sc, inc, etc. to form a star wing like that. In short, I don't know how to write crochet chart or pattern, I think I'm simply a newbie and haven't mastered and understood the basic techniques and when to use them. 😅I hope you can give me some advice
@@ComplicatedKnots I know, but the problem is i cant write my own crochet pattern I don't know what technique to use to create such shape. Professionals, sometimes they just see the product crochet, then they always know the crochet pattern
ITS THURSDAY! Ever since I discovered your channel, Thursdays are my favorite days of the week! 🥰
ME TOO!!❤
mine too!
"Give the gift of screams this Valentine's Day" love it 😂
All I want for Valentine’s Day is a screaming Opossum :)
When the body bean was by itself it was reading very hedgehog, and now my brain can't unsee it. But also this little guy is so adorable!
The staggered dc pattern is essentially overlay mosaic crochet and is one of my favourite crochet techniques 😁
Imagine possum slippers??? They would be very cute!!!!
Imagine putting like a voice box in so that stomping or stepping has a little possum screech
@@alexotlthegreat4450 ILY 😭🫶
The way you made the teeth and gums is genius! I appreciate your videos so much, thank you!
The crochet pattern I never knew I needed until it came up on my feed and remembered my sister likes opossums....

I did this using super chunky yarn. He ended up being the same size as an adult opossum.
I've only crocheted for 2 months and successfully crocheted this adorable opposum! Took 2 days! Thank You so much for the wonderful video! Now i feel I can do more advanced work!
Oh My Gosh Hilarious! Must start this ASAP! Thank you for this amazing video!!
Loved this project…making them into Christmas possums with little Santa hats. They sit in the branches of the tree and spread joy 😉
I made this silly guy as an anniversary gift for my partner. Hope she likes it! 🧡 🧡 🧡
I have never felt such an intense need to make something IMMEDIATELY 😂
He SCREAM
So happy I finally had time to make this little guy
These are so cute!! I am putting my current project on hold for this. Thank you so much for your pattern!

Another terrific design - those teeth are utterly brilliant! Such an adorable little guy.

Wow I crocheted your giant frog I love it❤
Hey for some reason this didn’t show up in my subscription feed, but I saw it on my home page. Weird. Love the pattern, can’t wait to make it!
Love the sound effacts ... " Attack tail, with attack face ... Waaah!"
Heheheh I know what I'm getting my bestie for Valentine's Day now. 😆♥️
oeh if you make the sitting one you can have them hold a little heart :p
The complicatedknots roll poly!!! I love her so mych
I made a magic circle with 8 sc for my eyes and they came out the perfect size for this project, as another option.
Great idea! I don't buy safety eyes, I normally embroider them but I feel like that wouldn't be the best for these big eyes, so I'm definitely going to try this.
Love these!
just finished making my opossum and i love him!!! hes so cuteee i love ur patterns as always
Made it and love it. So unique❤
I made him I just need to do his feet I’m excited he’s really cute I embroidered his eyes!!!!!❤️❤️❤️

This is super late but that sounds so cute! If you don’t mind, is there a pre-written module ? (Asking as a DM)

Oh no, he's adorable! Won't be able to crochet him for Valentine's but I'd love to give this one a try eventually! :)
I LOVE HIM!!!
Making this today! 😂 Thanks for the tutorial! ❤❤❤
this is something that i didn't think i'd need until i see it!! thank you for creating this pattern 😳❤❤
Added a pipe cleaner to the tail so my little guy can hang anywhere
That’s beautiful

Well… I guess I need to learn to crochet now.
Good idea, but you have to start with something easy because that cute little opossum is not easy to make. You'll just get frustrated if you start with this
Idea: glue in those little artificial resin teeth you can buy packs of instead of the crochet teeth so they have human teeth 👁️〰️👁️
New subscriber, this is just amazing
YESSSSSSS I LOVEI IT.
This is so cursed... I _love_ it!
Love this! Didn't show on my feed for some reason
omg I love this
As others have mentioned the grey body work is called mosaic crochet a wonderful woman from Iceland has lots of it on her channel. Her name is Trinna Thordorttir.. ok spelling might not be perfect here but it’s close ..love you possum
Omg the thumbnail scared me
The music though 😂😂
My favorite animal in the world. I even have one tattooed on my shin 😍🥰
Have no idea what a "screaming opossum" is but they kinda freaky. much love for your work. UK
Sooo. I am disabled and unable to make crochet. I love this screaming possum motif. I want to make a screaming possum crochet head helmet mask kinda like the deadmau5.
My crochet goal is to be good enough to make this
Why are you so good at making these?😩😅
I just watched the entire video. They are so captivating. This will be the 4th thing I have crocheted. I have done 3 bees. If this goes well, I shall make 7 more for the people in my stich and bitch. We are all living in the southern US. Opossums are frequent visitors.

So cute! Here we just say 'possum.
I jus realized that I pay for something free, but I thought that some way it was brought to the creator (yay), and it feels better.

I must hate myself as much as I hate sewing amigurumi parts because 🤡HERE I AM🤡, I just finished the big tooth part. Hopefully i'll actually sew it. 😂
FELT, I hate sewing amigurumi so much and yet I’m always making projects that require sewing 🤡 and this is my next project
All I can hear when I see those opossums is just AAAAAAAAAAAA
Is there a reason it says to make 4 tongues?
Out of curiosity, why regular decrease instead of invisible? Does it help with all the texture going on?
There's already so much going on in this pattern, I thought regular decreases would be simpler. Use invisibles if you prefer :)
According to the internet, Opssum and Possum are two similar but different species 😊
Very different. We have possums in Australia and they are very different and super adorable
Although they still scream :)
i love your channel i hope you do more pokemon on your channel
OMG Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!😃😃
I usually have to be in a mood to watch a crochet video, but I clicked on this so fast. How adorable!

Day 2, Could you please do a tutorial for a silk moth, I really want to crochet one but I don't know how to do the wings
Did you sew through both layers of the top jaw/headpiece when sewing to the body?
would it be possible if i could get a yardage count for each color so i know how big a skein i have to buy? if it's listed in the video already please let me know, adorable pattern !!
How else are you to show your love!

How romantic 💝💝💝 Live fast! Eat trash!
Does the weight have to be stolen or does preowned work also?
XD
Anyone know where to purchase one made with this pattern?

Please do no sew or low sew dog/puppy pattern❤
I think the stitch is post stitch? You can do front and back post? But This so cute!!!
Its similar to fpdc (front post double crochet) but it's not around the post :)
Hi friends!! Has anyone made one in plush yarn? I’m almost done- I used parfait chunky. Everything came out great except for the gums/teeth….I really struggled with that part! 😂 I couldn’t get the teeth “right”. Not sure how to adapt that part of the pattern.
