My very first crochet project 🥹💙

This is my first project when I started crocheting. Honestly I crocheted and unraveled until I almost gave up, but thank God I finished safely.

My goal was not a flare skirt, my goal was for it to be tight but it came out like this. Later I realized where I made a mistake, I increased too much on the hips :face_holding_back_tears::grinning_face: Anyway, the skirt came out…

How about you? Did you ever get challenges like mine in your very first project?

Yours was way better than mine.ROFL

There was no way I was keeping any images of my first try. LOL But it would have been an attempt at a sweater, of course, as that is what I mostly make.

And ALL my first tries had the same thing in common. They all started off the right width, and by row 20 or so they were 50% wider Every single time. My sweater backs all looked like upside down triangles.LOL

I had that issue for quite a while until I saw on YouTube to chain on with a hook one size bigger than the one you intend to use. Then after the chaining on, switch back. As soon as I heard that, problem completely solved.

I ALWAYS do that now, except for granny squares where it’s not really necessary.

But it took a while to figure out. Trust me, your first try looks better than mine for sure.:slightly_smiling_face:

Actually, yours looks perfect to me. That bottom design looks hard for a beginner

It looks awsome! My first project was supposed to be a tote bag, but idk what happened, I mistakenly have missed a few stitches but it looks more like a handbag :sweat_smile:. I would call this a very successful first project! Congrats!

Wearables are not easy, I struggle and they’ve been crocheting for a long time still learning. I think it came out fantastic great job.
