Adventures in Crochet

Proud South African/Ghanaian who loves to crochet! Feel free to look through my stuff, comment, or give suggestions on future projects. Note: I might occasionally have things that have nothing to do with crochet. Fear not, they are simply things I'm passionate about, or find funny :) Thanks, Love ya! SLYTHERIN { wear }

Can you guess what I'm making?

Turned out a little looser than I wanted, but I love the overall look!

This awesome person made a chart for number of stitches for increasing for crocheting in the round. I love you awesome person. (source)

Very helpful!

Any crocheters have tips for blocking a big afghan? I’m wanting to make one but I’m hesitant because I don’t have a lot of room to block.

Please message me with any tips!

I’m adding a link below on how to block crochet afghans/blankets. If you finish your afghan, and you can see there’s no need to block, then you can go ahead and skip blocking altogether :)

Attached the zipper early so it would be easier measuring

Current WIP

Finally done, and LOVING the way it turned out. It can basically be worn two different ways as shown in the pictures. I was a bit skeptical about the red, but it offers a nice contrast :)

About 3 or 4 rows from finally finishing. Lately, it has been taking about an hour to finish a row so I’m estimating maybe two or three days

And that’s how you do that. All that’s left now is to order the wig.

AMAZING!

Done! Could double as either a dress or a long top, but to be honest it'll probably be a top 🙊

Testing out the sleeves and loving it!!

Switched to a thinner thread so the vest would be tight up until the middle of my back but then fan out because of the looser stitches.

I bought 100 stitch markers yesterday. *whispers: I DON’T HAVE A PROBLEM* It was a good deal though…less than $2 for all of them! Who could pass that up? XD

[crochetadventures]

I must know where you got them!

Armholes are shaping up!
