crochet question
hello all! i'm wanting to crochet a purse, but only in one piece. i'm
making a flat panel, 6 or so inches, and then increasing on both sides to make the sides, then decreasing again to make the other side-6 inches as well. my problem is this-one of the increased sides is going to have an extra row, right? going back and forth on the beginning and ending rows of the side parts will make them uneven. is there a way to do this correctly? anyone know? thanks in advance!!!!! bj |

You should remember that one of the Benefits of Crochet over Knitting , is that you don`t Have to go back and forth to get with your [uncut] thread to another part, there is nothing wrong in cutting the thread, and starting to work with your needle on the Other side ,,, Another solution is that YOU CAN play with the `Height` of your Row By using a different stitch , you can start a row by chain st, that increase it to DC etc,,,, play a bit with your work to gain a bit more experience .try making some diferent forms ,, [ like a Square a triangle etc.] mirjam .. |
