How to Add a cute Crochet lace edging on a shirt

Supplies: any type of shirt, I used a cami and a ripped tank from target ( on sale for $5.00 each) A steel crochet hook I used 2.75 , but size 0 works too. and Crochet thread any size.  I also used Bernet Mosaic ( pink cami top) and it turned out great Skill level  I would suguest that you be able to have a even tension. There isn't an important gauge for this project but your stitches should be even. If you aren't sure try this on the edge of a thin dish drying towel or an old rage  :) A few notes I like to start in the middle of the back of the shirt so you can try a few stitches and if you make a mistake it wont be noticed.  Also don't try this out on you favorite shirt!! HAHA Are you ready to start??? I am soooo excited!! Okay we are ready to start!! We start right before the hem of the shirt ( GOING THROUGH TWO PIECES OF FABRIC IS TOO HARD) and the hem line will make it easy to be straight. Now how we start is we force the crochet hook...

Flip flops, new favorite yarns and LOTS of flat flowers

Hello Everyone!!! I have been very neglectful of this blog,sorry I will try to be on more often, let me show you what I have been up to!!!! I started teaching at 3 different Michael's Arts and Crafts ( The views and statements in this blog are MY OWN and DO NOT reflect or represent Micheal's Arts and Crafts in any way shape or form) ,  Long Beach, Orange and now Huntington Beach ( right by Bella Terra). If you are local come check out my classes, I have even designed 2 classes that are ONLY taught at these Michael's :) I am working on a third class based on the hat pattern I have on this blog, it's just a process of writing out the paperwork. Can I share how much I LOVE my job and how  lucky I feel to be able to crochet for 5-8 hours a day and actually help other crocheters while earn a little dough to support my darling little boys! Check out www.crochetcrowd.com for pattern details, this isn't the exact pattern but Mikey is the amazing one who came up with this...
