Yay! It looks great! I finished mine just recently too!
Crochet
A place for all who enjoy the art of crochet
Ah I'm glad you got there with it, was it a tension issue in the end or did it just sort of work itself out?
Looks great, really, it definitely works a lot better on your body shape but hopefully I can make mine a bit more accomodating for next year π
Yeah, definitely a tension thing. My previous attempt was tight and small and starting to curl in on itself by the time I got out to the 6th or 7th ring. This one was much better shape wise and I learned to enjoy the feel of working with the looser yarn.
I had to build all the way out to a chain 41 row for this to fit my shoulders and hips properly. I also tried blocking a project for the first time. That really helped the chains relax into the right shape and it gave me a chance to shape the whole thing to fit better as a top. Because really, it wants to be a big lace doily :)
that's dope as hell. Please say you're planning on adorning it with little crochet spidies π₯Ί
Naturally!
Love it!
Hope you wear it handing out candy π¬
Thanks! Sadly we don't actually get any kids coming round here, but I will be wearing it anyway just on the off-chance!
That is delightful! How long did it take?
Honestly hard to say as I've just been picking it up and doing a few chains whenever I had half an hour spare for the last few weeks. But maybe about 8 hours in total, given my habit of doing it while watching football and losing count and having to do bits over again π
Very cool! If you could add a toy spider to sit in the web when you wear it (perhaps attaching it to the shirt underneath) that'd be next level :D
Definitely going to add something for the updated version next year!
More candy for you then!
That's pretty cool
Thanks π
