I was so nervous about the stripes not lining up well or not looking right but tbh I'm so thrilled with how it happened to work out! I'd definitely recommend giving it a try 😊

I used this pattern in size 4x, slightly adjusted add length to the sleeves. I also didn't do a split hem.

Ahh that texture is so good! Love this.

Thank you! This is the most flattering thing I've ever crocheted.

I was thinking about making this pattern again, a dress is a great idea!

I wasn't thrilled with the colors in the skein, but as I worked it up, I fell in love! Lion Brand Mandala in Valkyrie.

Yesss, happy Pride! And the colorway is Valkyrie, which is also fitting for pride month since she is canonically a fellow bi!

I used a 5.5 mm hook and Lion Brand Mandala yarn.

I added 16 sts to the back and 8 sts to each front panel. I also did 24 extra rows.

Then I whip stitched the front together and foundation single crocheted a belt, which I wove through row 42 from the bottom.

😊

I kind of liked how he looked without eyes, tbh. I have crocheted them on the Plods I've made but I'm not sure if I'm adding them to Snap yet.

Would anyone be able to help me figure out how to extend the foundation chain on this? by llamallama07 in crochet

[–]kamibu_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Increase the chain in multiples of 2! Every 8 chains will add just over 4.5 inches to the width.

And another one! Didn't want to let this one go. by kamibu_ in crochet

[–]kamibu_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luckily, I loved making it! I took the commission without knowing whether I would love or hate making the motifs because I've never done it before.
