I'm the one who sent you the photo of the top I made for my daughter on ig. While I was doing the top, I was actually thinking of making a skirt for it too. Maybe with this pattern and I'll put lacing at the bottom the same with that top I made. 😍 Can't wait!!

if u want a full circle skirt increase every row!

😁😁 Great tip thanks!!

[@winni2761]

wait so would I put two double crochet for every stitch in every row or just an increase at the very last stitch?

Thank you so so so so SO much for this ive been wanting to make a skirt but don’t know how I could understand this tutorial perfectly and now I’m just waiting to get yarn to be able to finish my skirt!

[@TCDDIY]

yayyyy! so so glad to hear! 😍

[@boredcore3500]

Quick and to the point I love it I totally plan on making a knee length version as soon as I can!

[@TCDDIY]

😍sounds like a plan to me! What yarn are you going to use?

[@boredcore3500]

T CD not 100% sure yet but I have a ton of DK yarn from when I was making socks I’m curious what it’d look like with a thinner yarn

[@awagonload]

Great tutorial love it! Clear instructions, had a quick question though what if I wanted to make the skirt longer would I just repeat the pattern to what ever length i’d like?

[@clovercove8355]

Thank you :) I had four skeins of yarn I had no idea what to do with and I decided to make a skirt! This was fun and thought the yarn is a bit too chunky to really work as a skirt it’ll be fine to wear around the house :)

[@TCDDIY]

hehehe, That's awesome! I just recently cleaned out my closet and found a bunch of old skirts and have been wearing them around the house too! It's soooo comfortable!!

[@KhanuK..]

I made a skirt and the band was a different colour and I added a flower and a border along the bottom it looked so cute

[@TCDDIY]

I bet! Sounds super cute! 😍

@@TCDDIY Thank you!

[@rorireiswig5614]

Awesome video! Thanks for posting it! I was wondering why you went from increasing every two, then three, to increasing on the 10th stitch? If I wanted to increase another couple rows, when should I increase? Thanks again!

[@TCDDIY]

Thank you! We did it like that so that it can flair gradually cause I didn't want the whole thing to ruffle if you want it to continue repeat the increase into the 10th stitch 😊

[@rorireiswig5614]

Ok will do 😄

[@TCDDIY]

Awhhh, that means so much thank you!! Yes! I've been wanting to try to make one, just need to figure it out first. 😅

[@birchtree_6]

At the beginning you said it needs to fit around your waist and hips. Did you make it to the width of your hips or did you go in between your hips and waist circumferences?

[@TCDDIY]

Widest part of your hips. 😁 That's sk that it can fit over them when you're trying it on.

[@iswan_crochets3624]

Wow😍....so simple and actually turned out superb💯

[@yywxy]

hey! wonderful video, but what would I need to do if I wanted to make the skirt longer? 💞

[@TCDDIY]

Once when you get to a size that you like for the body of the shirt you can just put 1 DC into each ST and keep working it till it gets to your desired length. 😁

[@yywxy]

@@TCDDIY thank youuu for replying so quick !

[@lavenderlux3200]

amazing tutorial! do you how much yarn (yards or meters preferably) it took to make this? im heading to the store in the next few days but im not sure how much yarn to buy!

[@TCDDIY]

Hi! Unfortunately since this is an older video I don't remember how much yarn was used. 😭

[@HarvinderKaur-fv8hq]

If I wanted to make this closer to knee length, would I need to do more than 7 rows of increases to achieve that flowyish/pleated look? Or do I just keep 7 rows and keep crocheting the rounds like normal until I get the length I want?

[@TCDDIY]

If you'd like it more "scrunched" the yes do more than just 7 rows for the increase. If you like the look of ours than you can leave it at 7 rows. 😊

[@HarvinderKaur-fv8hq]

@@TCDDIY thanks!

[@struggstofuncs]

Ok but like....can you try making a video on how to do this with straight needles?

[@TCDDIY]

a knit skirt? If I knew how to knit I total would!! Unfortunately I couldn't get the hang of it when I tried. 😭

[@kameliaraicheva5417]

For straight knitting needles do it flat and connect it later. Start with any stitch you like but I'll suggest the basic rib stitch. Make the band slightly smaller because the rib will stretch. When you get to the skirt you can pick any stitch you want. Just remember that when you knit you have a right and wrong side and the two combined make up one row of crochet. From then on increase like shown in the video and you'd be good to go! I would suggest looking up "invisible increase" tutorials on youtube and how to seamlessly connect the ends of your project at the end. Hope it helps💞

[@LilyPaulsen2002]

Hey thanks so much ❤ I havent made this yet but hope to when i get some yarn to work with. I have a instagram and fb commision page specifically for my art and crochet. Is it possible to make this into shorts as I'd love to make this pattern as shorts. If so, any tips appreciated!! ❤

[@manymade9815]

Any tips for plus sizes?

[@TCDDIY]

😊 Make a Chain of that reaches around the widest part of your hips and the rest of the piece will be the same, but you can add more increases if you'd like to have it frill a bit more. 😊

[@Toneri_Inu]

If I were to make if longer, would the shape of the skirt look the same u made it?

[@TCDDIY]

I may fall a little more flat cause it would he heavier, but similar. 😊

HI Munchkin, thanks for reaching out! The current policy is you're free to sell the things you make using my patterns so long as you: -link the shop and the KZbin video wherever you post it -purchase the pattern -leave a photo review of the pattern Beyond that this agreement is for hobbiest or small businesses. If you're looking to sell over 15 items a month then we'd need to negotiate some sort of licensing agreement.

[@summerboone1285]

do you know how much yarn you used?

[@summerboone1285]

Also if you make the skirt longer (maxi Shiite length) would you need to make the pleats/ruffles bigger ?

[@TCDDIY]

Unfortunately, I don't remember since this is an older video. I'd say maybe 600 yards of yarn?

[@TCDDIY]

And that depends on the look you're going for. If you want a slimmer skirt I'd say leave it as is cause it'll fall straight cause it'll be a little heavy, or you can add more to give it more detail. Up to you. 😊

[@lexi_6669]

How much yarn does this take on average?

[@TCDDIY]

Hmmm, I'm not entirely sure since this is an older video. If I had to take my best guess i'd say 500-600 yards of yarn. 😊

[@eshaplants9846]

How many grams ?

[@fayelarock7501]

What hook size

[@TCDDIY]

We always star what tools were using int he beginning of each video. This ones at 0:09 and it's a 5 MM HK 😊

[@aerinsalgado4969]

Do you think i would be possible for me to do only 2 rows of increase and still have it look nice?

[@TCDDIY]

It's possible, but I will say that the ruffling of the waist band comes from the waist band being a little bit bigger than my hips so when I synch it it get's that nice ruffle. 😊
