your genius mind!!! also for the back my first thought was a single crochet edge around the opening? It might tighten it up a bit and also emphasizes the circular shape by cleaning up the edge

[@minigru.studios]

that’s such a good idea! it would be a lot quicker than picking up a bunch of stitches on some knitting needles haha gonna try this :)

[@taylorgee_art]

Love how you styled it!

[@minigru.studios]

thanks love 💕

[@uschilou]

Oh wow, super early. Absolutely love the texture the yarn and needle size created. The pattern and color is so perfect for summer! I need to explore my yarn stash bc i need to make this now. Thank you!

[@mirjamguevarakluxen5257]

A little tip for faster purl stiches/fatigue of the hands: check out Portuguese knitting 😁 Also I love the design of the romper 😍

[@minigru.studios]

ooo I'll have to give it a try :) thanks for the tip

[@deepa2220]

Adorable romper! And your septum piercing looks so cute!!!❤

[@minigru.studios]

THANK U

[@user-hd8ug7es7s]

Love your video the romper turned out so beautiful !!

[@minigru.studios]

that’s such a good question! I go into it kinda knowing already that it might look a little messy I just make sure to leave long tails so if a tail does end up popping out I can tuck it back in or trim it :) i usually end up doing “duplicate stitching” so it blends in a bit better and also one last tip if you’re using wool you can felt in your ends with a felling needle so the fibers stick to each other (here’s a video to demonstrate: ua-cam.com/video/EtOB-PzNu18/v-deo.htmlsi=Kw8UiGnNTH2XgrD2) the looser gauge will look messy no matter what just due to the tension being impossible to stay even! hope this helps :)

[@user-hd8ug7es7s]

Omg yes it more than helped I haven't thought about all those techniques thank you so much!! 🫶🫶
