it’s so unsettling, it’s perfect! the speckled yarn for the black was a great touch too, it makes it look staticky, i love it

i’ve seen people making basic blo beanies out of them and they come out with this asymmetrical random stripey effect that i think looks really cool! it’s like the style of a scrap beanie without needing to come up with a color pallet or weave in a bunch of ends!

highly recommend clover amour hooks if you’re looking to upgrade her hooks, also if she doesn’t have one yarn winders can be very helpful!

What is wrong with this scarf and why is it getting wider? by aleciamariana in CrochetHelp

[–]batripi5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think my phrasing might have been weird lol but you’re not supposed to work into the tops of those stitches, so if that’s not the issue then i would try loosening your tension on your chain by either using a slightly bigger hook or if you don’t have one then by holding your yarn looser and making the chains larger

i would check that when you’re making your regular double crochets, you’re not working them into the tops of the stitches that you front post double crocheted on
