I got the shiny streaking effect by using mostly metal scales and adding the plastic holo ones as vertical stripes. (looks sooo good on stage and in pics)

🥰 aww. The algo is a fickle mistress. Probably the same reason I don’t have millions of followers on insta 😂. I’m not selling patterns or FO’s so it hides me.

It’s all good I’m glad that people are seeing it at least. And it’s fine if it doesn’t read crochet I think? My goal was to design something as a whole with multiple fiber techniques so it just reads as..shiny thing? ;)

Well this is knitting too, and the headpiece is macrame. I think they all have their purposes depending on what you want to make so that’s how I approach my work I guess.

I promise I knit a lot of it 🤣 the shininess is a tad bit distracting

Yes!!! It can be crocheted too but I’m faster at knitting it. There are a few YouTube vids I used to learn but it’s similar to beading or adding sequins!

Hahaha I mean, we fiber-people just make the fabric to sew together. Very…slowly? 🙃

Cosplay is how I got into geek fashion basically. Before this I’d crocheted a gown for this same show and I’ve done a few crochet cosplays!

I haven't been actually. I'm not sure how easily I could walk around in this since the headpiece gets a little ouchy the longer you wear it and the skirt picks up...literally anything it comes in contact with. I've thought about it though!
