Knitting VS. Crochet
Here is an example of similar “looks” in knitting and
crochet. I’m designing something that
looks like bricks.
I like the knitted example much better because it achieves
the look of bricks better. However it
takes a lot longer to make than the same size piece in crochet.
The crochet sample is okay but doesn’t look as much like
bricks as I was hoping. Plus the pattern
was fiddly. You had to finish off at the
end of every row which means a ton of ends to weave in when done.
And that's a look into how I design projects.
You designed this stitch? It's really great!
ReplyDeleteNo, I didn't design the stitch. I'm designing something using this stitch. the knitted stitch is from the "ball band dishcloth" pattern and the crochet stitch is from a pattern book I bought the other day.
ReplyDeleteyou are so creative! really love those barefoot sandals! will pass on your link to some crafty teens i know!
ReplyDeleteGreat! I love it when the next generation crafts
ReplyDeleteYea, the knitted one looks much more like bricks than the crochet version. Sometimes you just have to go insane and to the extra fiddle work if you want to achieve what you have in mind.
