Question
Sue Edwards-Catt
I'm going to be making, I hope, some filet cafe curtains. I want to make 2 white and 1 pink (mums kitchen is a very pale pink colour)
I'll give you what the magazine states. English magazine
Materials: 140gr of No. 20 crochet cotton. A size 1.25mm (No. 3) crochet hook.
This is for 1 curtain, I'm going to be making 3 so I need to triple the amount of yarn I need, which makes it 420gr. Now I've worked it out that I will need: 14 white & 7 pink 20gr balls of cotton.
No. 20 thread is super fine stuff!! I'm still not well versed in all things crochet, but can I substitute the #20 for a different kind of cotton? Say a 3ply? Or 2ply? I ask because #20 is not on the cheap side of the $$$.
Thanks ladies and gents for your help!
