Hi hmmmirjana,

Hi hmmmirjana,
I love your work and the idea to make a straight tank top instead of flowy one. It looks extremely good, and the yarn color is perfect. Congratulations!
Thank you for sharing your work with us. I appreciate it. Happy crochet!

Hi Sana, I would like to make

Hi Sana, I would like to make the flowy Lacy top. I can’t seem to find the Red Heart superfine crochet cotton. What gauge should I use? Is it it the same as 4 ply knitting yarn?
