Crochet Upcycle Tutorial 🧶 Notes: • Choose a thicker t-shirt. The thinner the fabric, the more your running stitch holes will stretch out. • Make sure your darning needle is thin and pointy. • Make running stitch in a similar color to shirt to disguise the stitches. Use a... weight 4 yarn or lighter. • 1/8" is the approximate space between holes. Some I made a little wider and they cinch more. Only 1 stitch will be worked in each so they shouldn't be too wide. • I tie my running stitch in a bow while I work and then triple knot later after the crochet work is completed. This allows me to adjust the running stitch if needed. • Start crocheting with a 5mm hook and assess if Row 1 sits well under the shirt sleeve. If its cinching the fabric, its too tight and you could redo Row 1 with a bigger hook. If its flaring or bunching underneath then its not tight enough and you could redo Row 1 with a smaller hook. • Try the shirt on periodically to make sure its the right size and length. Stretch out your crochet work from time to time but dont pull hard on the running stitch. • Hand steam if you can, it really relaxes the sleeves. • Any questions, feel free to ask! 💕 #crochet #crochettutorial #tutorial #upcycleshow more
