Crochet Garment Design: Pattern Making and Sizing

“It has been a pleasure being able to accompany you during this course. I hope you have enjoyed this time we have shared as much as I have. If you want, you can start with the design that I propose in this course, but do not hesitate to investigate and experience first-hand all the steps of the design process with your own ideas. 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. Mood board Organize your ideas and create a mood board. So you can have it as a guide throughout the process.

Sketch Make a sketch shaping your design idea and the scheme to weave.

Measurements and calculations Establish the measurements of your prototype and the looseness of the garment. Calculate the points for your prototype based on the measurements and the stress sample.
Fabric Weave the parts of your prototype. Follow the steps we have given in Unit 4 to gradually shape the parts of your garment.

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. Finally, I want to invite you to actively participate in the forum, not only sharing your progress, but also giving advice and trying to help the rest of the community. It sure is very enriching! See you on the forum!”
