This looks amazing! Definitely a commitment to get this finished, especially with 1mm hook. But it’s beautiful so far. Are you following a specific pattern

[–] _aamon@piefed.zip 7 points 1 week ago

No, I'm just trying to fit any nice pieces I find in th web, with the consultation with the final owner of this piece.

That is amazing commitment. It’s looking so good this far.

This is impressive. I have such curtains at home, not homemade of course, but I will never look at them the same. This is a piece of art you are building.

That is awesome! Are you using double crochets or triple crochets?

[–] _aamon@piefed.zip 3 points 1 week ago

It's standard filet crochet, so double crochet. :3

Ooooh… do you know where you’ll hang it up? This is stunning!

[–] _aamon@piefed.zip 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes. That's the gift for a friend of mine, he will us it in a kitchen window :D

You’ve been working on a curtain with a 1mm for 2 years for a friend? Must be quite the friendship! I hope they cherish it
