My Taylor Swift Inspired Crocheted Top - A WIP

in NeedleWorkMonday29 days ago (edited)

Hello everybody,

So good to be back posting again my craft which is crocheting. Longtime I have not posted in the community.

Last month of July was my birth month I really thought I can make another top for me but hubby's of health is not good up to now, so, I just did not make any top for me which was my tradition long time ago, to make any thing I could wear. Hubby even asked me what I wanted for my birthday, I told him never mind it was not important even if I did have a new dress or top to wear. No problem. Then, one day, I think that was end of July I saw a post about Taylor Swift dress, hmm, I have a crush on it. I told hubby can I buy yarns like Taylor Swift's dress? I showed it to him.Thanks, he said, "order it right away." It arrived right away, ahahaha! Happy with the colors!

Here is my inspirstion...Taylor Swift's Dress.

I started right away my project. But, not a dress, I will make a top, short sleeves with a hoodie. Then, not all granny stitch but with one V stitch in one line like this inspiration.

I draw the top and the outline after I made some rows.

All stitch are made of extended double crochet for a longer stitch and can reach my goal of 22 inches width.

Here is my progress though slow because of house chores and we always travel go to the doctor for hubby's checked up.

The goodness of crocheting for our own use, you can work slowly, not like made to orders can be stressful because of the deadline.

Yesterday, it was again hubby's checked up with the Gastroenterologist, while travelling I crochet during stop light and traffic time. Here is now my progress with my project.

Thank you much for dropping by and hope you like my new crochet project.

I simply love the dress on Taylor Swift and can't wait to see yours. It's a beautiful thing you decided to make something for yourself, I think it is good because we have to chose happiness against all the challenges we face.

I wish your hobby good health ma.

Please try to include the link to where you got the Taylor swift's picture so that you won't be flagged for using her pics with adding a reference.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful creative work with us.

Oh thank you much for reminding me I will search where I got those picture of Taylor Swift because just I screenshot it. I will try to edit the picture and omit it.

It's already coming out nicely, I love the V pattern you chose to work with, looks unique, can't wait to see the final look.

Wishing your hubby a quick recovery to good health, I like supportive partners, he is a gem.

Thank you, yeah, I really want to rush in making but my time hinders me.
