I finally finished Triple Play. I used a lighter weight cottonblend, so it took about a week to complete it. I liked the pattern.
The shawl is based on the Winged Hair Kerchief pattern. http://www.crochetville.org/forum/showthread.php?t=7691

I really liked the way the top end curves.http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y113/crochetfun/skirtnshawl.jpg

I love the skirt! I wish I could see it closer. I'm guessing you lined it?

Thank you.
No, I did not line it. My daughter just went out to buy a slip to wear under it. Aside from the double crochet rows (2) it is pretty solid. I will try to get a close-up though.

I'm so jealous. Your skirt is so much cuter than my skirt. Great job.

I don't see that, but thank you anyhow.
Yours has more body because of the yarn you used. :)

That skirt is fabulous! I don't suppose it would be too hard to whip up, either.

Very nice. I made the Triple Play with WW like it said and it was heavy so I think I will use your choice of a cotton blend the next time. It look's great on your daughter. What do her friends think about her crocheted clothing?

Thank you.
This yarn I bought on a cone, I am not exactly sure what is the mix, it is almost ribbon-like but thin (14 wraps/inch). However, with the 5.5 mm hook that translated to about 50 % more rows. (I was anxious to finish that is why a week seemed like a long time)

My daughter's friends put in requests. Some are more challenging than others. Right now I need to make a wrap skirt for the beach and a crocheted bra. The latter is giving me a lot of grief.:)

Everything looks wonderful...once again;) . What yarn did you use for the Triple Play? I have the pattern and was wondering what others used. Great job on that shawl too!

I love the shawl and the skirt!!

I'd love to know where to get the pattern also. I don't think any of the stores here would carry it. Ok, we have Walmart, Michael's and JoAnn's so I'm SURE they wouldn't have it.

Thank you ladies:)

The skirt is a Fiber Trends pattern: AC-72

You can find out through them which store in your neighbourhood might carry the pattern.
I would recommend it to anyone, it is very easy and quick. I was very pleased with it, so is my daughter. She had lots of compliments from her friends.

I just have to put the last round on my skirt but it seems a bit short. I used white ww I am not sure if I should add more rounds to make it longer or leave it as is
