The Thread Nook

Yaaaay! GA oh 🥹 Ganda ng dress huhu

Story Time: I originally designed Kumintang Set with a polo/shirt but I changed that last minute. When making the pattern for the polo, it doesn’t scream “SUMMER” for me. Maybe because of the yarn I was using too. So, I took a step back m, watched a couple of TWD episodes 🤭 not that it has something to do with the design haha I just needed to refresh my mind and that’s how I want to relax.

Since this is a set, I want to make sure that it uses the same st as the bralette and shorts, but I also need the drape and I can’t seem to get that from just the original stitch so I incorporated dc and mesh st. The style didn’t come to me all at once. I crochet and figure out what comes after as I go. And I am sooo happy it turned out how I imagined. 🥹

Tester call is ongoing. If you want to test the pattern, please visit the link in my bio (or check the comments if you see this on fb).

In this photo I used 12ply fine cotton. I finished 1 cake and almost half of the 2nd cake ☺️.

Proud moment here 🥹 Thank you .yarn_ph for doing justice to my design. You’re 🔥🔥

Peng and I have been messaging each other even before the tester call. She said she’s curious because the design looks like it can hold her girlies 😅 and it effin can! And I couldn’t be more proud.

Kumintang Summer Set pattern is still ongoing testing. Some of our testers already completed the bikini top and others started with their shorts. 🫶 I can’t wait to share their version with you guys. Please stay tuned for pre-sale. 😉
