A fellow crocheter, who runs a nifty shop on Etsy as seller Jenster76, was kind enough to pass on a tip regarding my coffee sleeve pattern. She informed me of a sc foundation that was chainless. It sounds weird, but it keeps it from getting too tight. I went over to Youtube to check it out and my excitement died pretty fast...it's going to take me a month of minutes to grasp that one well enough to make it look decent on anything I make! So I pondered it and pondered it, because I had the feeling that she had a really good point. She's a veteran with a successful shop online, so she knows what she's talking about....so how do I change it? I decided it might be easier if I added another chain or two on the base but that wasn't it. *Light bulb turns on* I needed to make it adjustable. That would definitely be unique. But how???? LOL. The corset was born! :) I was going to name it after Jen, but I wasn't sure how she'd like it so I just named it Lady's Coffee corset instead.
What do you think? I'll be working on the written pattern at some point with some changes to this one. I wanted it to be a little less wide, so that you can see the opening better. But maybe not, because it wouldn't fit wider cups as well.
