First pic is way to large I’ve made size 38 with 3mm hook
starting over again this time size 36 with 2,5 mm hook

off course The chain is twisted , though I was very careful about not to twist it, I realised it when first half of body was done, no way to frogg it again
no matter what ,I will cheat about that little twist.

July 18: I think I’m done with the bodice
Didn’t complete the nine rows of shells, nor the lacy shells on top , because I wanted a more open v neck
maybe I will do the lacy shells later on, but I’m still not sure about it. I’ve try it on and it fits , though i could have been more close fitting to the body.
Made 4 rows of single crochet 180 to make a sort of “ BOOBSband” to be sure to hide them well.

YOHO: on my way to the skirt !
Finnished the first diamond pattern, it was clear, fun and easy to make

July 19: goal of the day is to finnish pineapple pattern

July 21: ( pic 4& 5) OH no ! I was on my way to second diamond pattern , then realised far to late, that something is terribly WRONG, I havn’t the design I’m supposed to have, design I have has his own logic but looks weird
that means I will have to frog entire rows !
I’m wondering where did the thing went wrong ?
maybe frogging 4 rows , which is already sad, but perhaps 8 rows ! which will be devastating !

second thing that worries me is that the dress has become very large while doing piineapple pattern,
I won’t have nice hip shapings

July 22: back to where I was yesteday before frogging, ( ROW 36) found the mistake between row 32 and 33, i forgot to turn the work, that’s so dumb !
Something seems weird to me row 42 at the end of instructions it says: dec next 2 dc tog , I think it’s( dec next 2 dc)X2 at least that’s what my logical sense suggest me to do.
July 24: finnished second diamond pattern
let’s go for the scallops, 20 more rows to go
July 30: finnished ! it fits , I love it and I say yes to the dress :)
My dress was just finnished in time for the blue moon
(which is rare and occasional, it’s when 2 full moons take place in the same month)
