I was super excited when I began working on the Sensu Skirt back in December! The idea for this design popped into my head after stumbling upon a similar skirt online. The one I saw wasn't crocheted or knitted; it was actually made out of fabric. However, I was determined to put my crochet skills to the test and recreate that pattern using yarn. I couldn't wait to see if I could bring my vision to life!
I have created a tutorial that explains the process using a small sample. I hope this will be helpful in following along with the written pattern..
