Definition

Wearable crochet is designed around gauge and drape: fabric weight, elasticity and recovery decide whether a piece hangs correctly on the body.

Overview

Gauge swatches are non-negotiable here — a half-stitch difference over 10 cm becomes several centimetres across a garment.

Fibre determines silhouette: merino holds shape, alpaca and bamboo grow, cotton stays put but adds weight.

Characteristics

  • Gauge-critical
  • Drape-led fibre choice
  • Elastic edgings
  • Blocked to final measurements

Typical uses
