I remember a college roommate crotcheted a bikini that turned out cute. I don't remember if she actually wore it in the water, but she brought it with her for Spring Break somewhere warm near water. It was made out of cotton and lined. This was in the early '70s. What goes around, comes around!
Wow I never really wanted to make crochet swim until now, adding the lining and the soft elastic straps seems like it would be so much more comfortable!
I'm literally making a crochet skirt right now and the number of times I've had to unravel it....like no. But it always feels SO good when you're done!!
I've seen some of the plants' leaves have brown bits around the edges. That usually happens due to lack of metal. You can avoid it bu berrying some metal scresw into the pots.
Thank you for showing when you frog part of your crochet projects. As a beginner frogging seems really off-putting but i dont think people should be discouraged when they need to frog. I think it shows growth in your crochet abilities. I love seeing others frog their projects and showing their growth!
I'm knitting a winter scarf in 25 degrees Celsius in the Danish summer time while watching this video 😂 so relaxing, you always know how to bring us watching to a happy place ❤️
I saw a post saying you should use a mix of cotton and spandex yarn. Their reasoning was, after your cotton yarn stretch, it wouldn't return to its original sizing, making it too loose for your body and doesn't fit snug. I'm trying very hard to find that original post.
I have worn a cotton crochet bikini in the water before, it does end up stretching out and getting really heavy, but it was much more comfortable to wear out of the water than an acrylic yarn might have been as it was really hot outside. Definitely be careful if you take it swimming it might get kinda loose, but you can always tighten the straps as that happens if they are the kind you can tie. I have never made bottoms however, not sure how those would hold up
I would love to see you make a quilted/patchwork beach towel from hand towels and rags from the thrift, I just thought of the idea and you would be the most ideal person to try it out.
Started learning crochet and knitting after watching your videos and learning knit through your videos..you're so inspiring love your creations and your vibe..so fun to watch💗
I got my driver's license in 81,I hear ya barkin',but I got you beat,and who puts a crochet bikini on a 6/7yr. old? Your memories when you were 6 are probably not as clear as you want them to be.
@@annalake4376 was questioning my memories really necessary? It was the very early 80s and while by today’s standards people might not do it, it was still totally innocent. My crochet bikini covered just as much as any other bikini. I just had a saggy bum when I came out of the water.
I’m almost 60 and have only been crocheting a few months. I wish I had learned when I was in junior high/high school because I swam and went to the beach all the time! I wanted a crochet bikini way back then so badly, but they were expensive!! I could have made my own. 😭 My goal is to make a cute halter top for my daughter when I get a bit better at crochet. Your bikini is adorable!!
Me watching this while crocheting a top on the couch. I feel you haha It’s one of my fave thing about crochet too, being able to do it on the couch and to watch anime doing it 😂😍
i am so glad i found your channel! i love watching your videos while i work on my patchwork cardigan. I know it's summer, but i would love to see you try one in the future! ❤
Okay so ❤️ 1. I absolutely love this top/bottom and absolutely will be attempting this myself. 2. I almost screamed bc i saw you were watching Watcher and I LOVE THOSE DORKS
I was recommended your channel because of the crochet content and I am so happy you're still crocheting! I'm making the Killstar sweater. It's taken me almost 2 weeks and I am working on the sleeves now. I hope to finish by the end of the week? It's a single crochet so you know how slow that goes O: Sending lots of positive vibes xo
This turned out soo cute! Commercial crocheted bikinis are treated with something to make them not absorb water. I would definitely not wear this to swim lol
Your little dog always has this look of , "OMD, what is she doing now?". Your suit's good, btw. I see you in the water in the next video coming up Let's see how it performs...
That's crazy I'm doing exactly the same with Harry Potter books rn and same I'm at the 4th again 😂 and I feel like I haven't listened carefully the first time like the story has change 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️ it's so wierd!! And looove this bikini top btw 🌷
