    About

    Love the yarn!!! However my tension must be wonky because despite my tension swatch appearing to be spot on (using recommended hook size & yarn), my first attempt at the largest size (to fit bust 42/44") measured up to 53" actual size!

    So, I've started again, trying to crochet a bit more tightly & it seems to be working. It looks about 3" smaller this time. I'm starting to wonder if I just used the wrong size hook the first time...

    19/2/18 Grrr arrgh! Still too big. Trying a 3mm hook this time. I must crochet really loosely....
