    I'm not Criticizing your work by all mean it's a beautiful Top Tank N I love making different Tank Tops Becuz I live in FL it always HOT. I just wanted to ask a few Questions I do ask other Channel's too,Where they could've done it easier or I see something that I wanted to ask. I like how you did your Foundation Chain Nice A lot Ppl should be using this Method its Way faster then doing Chains then SC,HDC,DC Nicely done.👍 Most people Crochet Tank Tops,Blouses or Sweaters in the Round. So it's easier some don't make two sides the front N the back side if they're Identical like you did here. Why do you feel the need to do that? When clean up the Tank Top with Single Crochet,Why didn't you just Single Crochet all the way around to the other armpit? Why did you do it in 3Sections? I think it's Unnecessary work N A LOT of hiding more of your ends? I ask because I'm try to understand Why some Crocheters do it the way it is in there Video's. I'm going to make your Tank Top no matter how you did becuz it's a beautiful Top. Thank you for the Tutorial. Take Care N Stay 🤍🤍🤍

    This might sound crazy, but I can't seem to figure out the foundation chain like you have done it, so I just chained 48 then did my single crochet the rest of the way so I still have 47. I am now confused about which is the right and wrong side and what steps I need to follow. Can you help? Thank you!

  • @TheTurtleTrunk

    @TheTurtleTrunk

    2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Lori! You can absolutely start your tank with a regular chain like you've done. Your row of single crochets worked into the chain would count as Row 1 so that would be the right side (your tail end from where you started the foundation chain will be on left when the right side is facing up). Hope that helps!

    You will definitely need to either add stitches, or make a size 2-3 larger than your normal size. If you're adding stitches be sure to have an odd number of stitches across. You can also try using double strands of yarn to get it to match the gauge.

    Hi! Sorry about the link, I have updated it: amzn.to/3X5zbyF. I used Circulo cotton yarn but you can use another worsted weight cotton if you'd like. And the number of skeins needed will depend on the size you're making but most sizes will need between 2-3 skeins of the circle yarn. Hope this helps!
