Garment and Pattern Design with Top-Down Crochet

Crochet: design garments and patterns with circular knitting

“Thank you very much for joining me in this course. I hope you have enjoyed all the content that I have prepared with great care for you. Throughout the course I have been giving you advice so that your final project turns out perfect. The most important thing is to lay out a design on a sketch and take the correct measurements. With this clear, do not be afraid to try and weave, checking every so often if everything is fitting. If you have to modify things on the fly, take it as a challenge and enjoy each variation. Before we say goodbye, let's review the key phases of the project. It would be great if you briefly explain what you have done in each one and accompany the explanation with one or more images. Sketch First of all, draw a sketch of your ideal sweater.

Materials and sample Choose the materials with which you want to knit it and make a sample to determine the number of needles and types of stitches you are going to use. Measurements and calculation of points Next, take your measurements and calculate how many stitches and turns your project should have. Fabric Now you will have everything ready to knit your sweater. As we saw in the course, start with the yoke, knitting until the sleeves are separated. Then you will have to knit the length of your sweater. Next, knit the stitches for the sleeves and the neck. Don't forget to customize it to give it a unique touch. Also remember to write down all the steps you take so that you can finally have your own professional pattern. Show us your finished sweater! Finally, take some nice photos of your project and share it with our weaving community. Now share your final project with all of us by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result of your sweater and the steps that have led you to it. I am looking forward to seeing your project and giving you feedback. Although I ask for your patience, I will try to access the forum as much as I can and what my professional projects allow me. You already know how to knit a basic seamless sweater in a circle, but this is just the beginning. From here, you can make infinite variations such as: change the type of stitch, modify the cut and style of the garment, vary the sleeves, decorate on the finished garment... Finally, I want to invite you to contribute your grain of sand in the forum, not only sharing your progress, but also giving advice and trying to help the rest of the community. See you on the forum! ”
