I crochet things

Carrd Link! (Stores and other socials!)

Hello!! I'm Ritvik, I've been crocheting since about 2021 and recently started running my business Astral Pomelo! I have no clue what I'm doing here but I wanted to be able to share all my creations and experiences and also the occasional tester call or pattern release!

I've just started tabling at conventions here's a picture of me at Hyper Japan Manchester 2025 which was my first time tabling!

I hope you enjoy the car crash of content that this is going to be and feel free to interact how you want!

There's only really one rule: be nice and respectful!

Master List

Creations: Umbreon & Espeon Cats! Moogle & Chocobo Jiji Quagsire

Pattern Releases: Normal Chao

Conventions: MCM London May 2026

I'm finally back from MCM (am still super tired) but it was such a good experience.

It was my first time at MCM and I was so nervous but everything I made was so well received I am truly grateful to everyone who stopped by to chat and of course bought anything.

I do want to change my layout for next time because i realised that with the way I'm setup now not as many people talked to me as back at Hyper Japan Last year, for Hyper Japan London I have a much bigger space to work with so I'll try and optimise for yapping :p

Hopefully I can get back into artist alley this October as I really want to be able to table here again, even with how exhausted I am afterwards.

My normal chao crochet pattern is finally out!!!!

Made Jiji from Kiki's delivery service!!!

I don't know how its taken me so long to make Jiji considering Kiki's delivery service is one of my favourite Ghibli films but here we are. I added the bow to the pattern because I thought it looked adorable.

As a final fantasy and kingdom hearts fan I'm a bit ashamed to say it's taken me this long to make a moogle and chocobo! I do really love this pattern I think its really good, one thing that had become clear to me however during making these is that this yarn is not good with continuous rounds and I am going to have to switch to doing invisible joins!

I wanted to have a generic cat pattern so I made one!

The plan for this is to act as a baseline for if I want to make other characters into cats!

Made my two favourite eeveelutions!

Calling all sonic fans!!!! I have a tester call open for my normal chao pattern!

Head over to my Instagram to sign up for the pattern test! It's super beginner friendly so I'd recommend anyone who wants to start pattern testing to sign up!!!
