A FEW NOTES ON GAUGE AND SIZING
Every crocheter has a different tension. It’s more important that you meet gauge than stress over the recommended size hook or the recommended yarn. Always gauge swatch!!!
Gauge (blocked): 6 V sts x 9 rows (4 Gauge pattern repeats) = 4.5” x 4” swatch
The Very Vero Skirt is intended to have 1-3” of negative ease around the hips. The added waistband and belt allow you to cinch the skirt comfortably around the waist. Choose a size that is 1-3” less than your hip measurement (measured around the fullest part of your booty) to ensure the intended fit. Designer is 5’10”, has 48” hips, and is wearing a size 5 (45”).
