aww thank you so much!! i’m sure with more practice it will start to look neater and i think that as the maker, we always tend to notice our mistakes when nobody else does

Was knitting on my own skirt while watching this lol It's on 4.5mm needles and I currently have 600+ stitches in a round (increasing by another 20 every 6 rounds) so I can 100% relate to yours taking forever 🤣 Especially since knitting only has 1 stitch length, so it's like having to make a whole skirt in single crochets 😭
@made.byalena10 ай бұрын
wow!! i really want to learn how to knit and i didn’t know there was only one stitch length. i can’t even imagine making a skirt in single crochets that would take so long 😭😭

The yarn you are using is too stiff, it's especially noticable in the sweater. Since it's acrylic, I doubt it'll block out. You could try using a bigger hook size to work around the stiffness a bit, but in the end not every yarn is suitable for every project.
@made.byalena10 ай бұрын
yes! the yarn is very stiff still but i’m chilling with it and it’s very warm. but a good learning experience for next time!

i'm very sad that i learned how to crochet in fall, because i'm still not confident enough to make clothing and it's almost winter :,) i'll get there though!!!
@made.byalena10 ай бұрын
i feel that honestly i learned in february of this year so i’m pretty new at it too but the more you crochet, the more confident you’ll be! i say to just go for it because wether it works or not it’s a learning experience for sure
