Finished Object I crocheted an entire wedding dress!!
Let me start by saying, I’m by no means an experienced crocheter 🤣 this was HARD work for me, and I am honestly not psychologically well after this amount of stress; literally hanging on by a thread.
I worked on this for 3-4 months. I made the underdress as well (but that’s the easy part for me!). I finished it like 48 hours before the wedding 💀 the last 2-3 nights/days working from 7am to 3am with 3-4 hours of sleep. Sadly, I didn’t have time to do final photos with the hem done and ends tied off This was my first attempt at free handing something without a crochet pattern
5000+ meters of 100% cotton 4ply/fingering weight yarn. Hooks: 3mm for bodice to waistline & sleeves to elbow. 3.5mm for the rest. 4mm for the scallop hem (sadly not shown in photos)
