Yarnies FAQ (Quick Highlights)

Do the hosts just pick their favourites?

  • Nope! Nominations come from the community. That’s why sharing the nomination posts and form is so important—more reach = more diverse voices.

Will only the “big” accounts be nominated?

  • The organizers are intentionally limiting each creator to a maximum of two categories so that nominations better reflect the full range of crochet creators, big and small.

Can I spam one person in every category?

  • No. If someone is written in for every category—especially where it doesn’t fit—that’s considered spam and those entries won’t be counted. Please nominate creators in relevant categories only.

Can I submit the form multiple times?

  • You’re encouraged to submit once to help keep things fair.

For full details, please see the official nomination form.

  • Discover encouraging community spaces

  • See themselves reflected in the creators they follow

  • Share their own work and stories

If our lives, content, or community spaces have helped you feel more welcome, inspired, or connected, we’d be honored if you considered voting for Yarn Over Hook in relevant categories—especially:

⭐ Community Creator of the Year

“Who inspired YOU? Which creator made you feel welcomed in the community, inspired your creativity, and really made an impact on your craft?”

If that sounds like your experience with us, we’d be so grateful for your vote.

You’re also encouraged to vote for Sammi (Crochet YouTuber of the Year) and Alexis (Crochet Make of the Year)—and of course, please use the form to uplift other creators you love too!
