Diy Crochet Skirt

You might not see too many crocheted skirts around, but with the right yarn you can crochet up some beautiful and stylish skirts. Believe it or not, but crocheted clothing is becoming more popular, even among celebrities. You see images of them wearing all sorts of crocheted items. Crocheted wearable's are great for everyday wear. However, with the right yarn or thread, you can crochet up some pretty fancy clothes that you can wear on special occasions including wedding, prom and party dresses. For these types of dresses you'll want to crochet with a finer thread to allow for fine details to be added. You'll also need to line them in most areas in order to protect the body.

This straight skirt is a simple project for a first-time garment crocheter. The Tunisian stitch pattern is an updated version of “the Melissa stitch” found in a vintage crochet book. The Modern Melissa Skirt has a great texture and the denser fabric of the Tunisian crochet means you can wear it unlined over tights or leggings. Start by crocheting two panels flat, join with a sturdy single crochet seam, and then finish with a covered elastic waist band crocheted in the round. If you prefer a liner, wear slip shorts rather than a half slip. There is a video tutorial to walk you through all the special stitches used in this pattern. Skills Used Basic crochet stitches: chain, single crochet, Crocheting in rows for skirt panels, crocheting in rounds for waist bands, Decreasing, Special stitch patterns: Decrease Return, Standard Return, Tks, Tss.
