Crochet Skirt Pattern Release

Introduction

  • A few months ago, the creator finished unfinished crochet projects, including a ruffled skirt.
  • Received numerous requests from viewers for the pattern.
  • Pattern for the skirt will be released soon, prompted by viewer interest.

Pattern Details

  • The skirt pattern is a general guide for creating a tiered ruffled skirt.
  • Options include:
    • Longer versions
    • Using thicker yarn for less transparency
  • Photos from testers showcasing different sizes and styles included.

Yarn Selection

  • Discussed yarn options:
    • White mohair (more available)
    • Alpaca boucle (expensive, from Chicago)
    • Thicker blue yarn (label unknown)
  • Concerns about color contrast and texture of yarn for the skirt.
  • Decided to use the thicker yarn for added texture.

Skirt Construction

  • Started with a ribbed double crochet waistband.
  • Skirt layers are worked as one piece, but considering separate layers for movement.
