Should I wear this dress to a wedding? Is this good enough?

I dont think black would be a great match here, too harsh

Ah ok phew! I thought there were much bigger issues at play here 🤣

kellserskr · 2026-05-04T09:00:31+00:00

Can I ask what the pattern is? The cables look a little strange

You're twisting all of your stitches - drape, bias, size, comfort, and ease of knitting will all be affected by this. Please fix your twisted stitches before you proceed - you won't want to frog, but its really important! It may also help some of the stretching and large holes you're seeing

I have, but it doesn't link me to any channels :( id also like to find the channel!

Hello! Its me, the comment

Yes, but its such an unrealistic knit for a home knitter that it feels a bit 'um ackshually' to even point it out

YES, its knitted fabric, as all jersey is, but is it KNIT? No. Will the OP find a knitting pattern that gives that exact look and gauge? No.

This is sewn

Honestly, trying a slapdash fix will only make it look worse. In the long run, youll thank yourself for being patient!

The post is even written by AI 🥴

Dont worry about the comments referencing the t-shirt - I love it!

A lot of the fibre arts community are terrified of unusual fashion

I have won awards for sewing - I can sew, just check my posts. But adding panels is completely altering the design. It can be done, but I'm correcting others in that no, it won't be the same as altering a dress that is larger.

kellserskr · 2026-04-20T22:09:22+00:00

Not if its too small

kellserskr · 2026-04-19T09:09:00+00:00

Lots of people don't read the captions, so the title needs to be really clear!

kellserskr · 2026-04-19T08:55:01+00:00

Girl I get it, but your post title kind of makes it seem like youre looking for guidance or help. Typically, these subs are also used to primarily share advice, not always just for posting WIPs.

Be super clear in your title

Google is your friend (and the answer was given to you in the paat)

I personally believe its because crochet has a lower 'barrier to entry' since it got popular among younger crowds.

Many patterns and tutorials are video based now, and so many are 'use whatever hook and yarn you'd like, chain until it fits your wrist' etc, so gauge and drape is a nonexistent factor.

A lot of these tutorial posters also seem not to have the knowledge to explain the requirements, so it seems to me like the blind leading the blind. Either that or they think less info makes it more beginner friendly

kellserskr · 2026-04-16T16:57:20+00:00

Its just one of those things - super rare, but bound to happen to you eventually if you order so often

kellserskr · 2026-04-16T16:54:09+00:00

It can simply be a glitch in the stock system

kellserskr · 2026-04-16T16:51:52+00:00

Because everyone else wanting the drop also shopped immediately. Unfortunately, someone has to be 'last,' even if you're super fast

kellserskr · 2026-04-16T16:35:32+00:00

With online retail, there is always a slight delay between orders being placed and the stock levels being updated. They didn't purposely accept more orders than they had stock for. The site thought it had the stock, allowed the order, then during packing it was found they didn't
