<div>Hello everyone, I’m an old hand at crochet, although I’ve been to busy to do it lately (I know, how is that possible?) Crochet is my favourite craft although I also knit, bead, scrapbook, paint and sketch. I want to hear from you soon. I’m amber BTW.</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/bellydancecrochet">Belly Dance Crochet</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>Hello All~ <br/> <br/>I just wanted to post an idea for anyone who is interested! I started making these guantlets expecting to use them for a cabaret costume, but with your typical 4 ply yarn, in black, they look very tribal! I'm thinking about adding some fringe down the bottom of the arm and possibly some cowry accents. <br/> <br/>Also bought some fancy gold crochet cotton and these are going to match my cabaret costume.....simple project....and very pretty! I just haven't decided if I should get sequin in purple/whitish or stick to the gold theme. My costume is purple and gold with white rhinestones. Any Ideas? Should I leave the sequin out all together? <br/> <br/>This is the link- I modified her pattern a little because some parts didn't make sense to me, but I prefer making my own patterns anyhow. Hah....that way I can't mess them up! <br/> <br/>www.nadyas-sewing-instructions.de/i...tm </div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/bellydancecrochet">Belly Dance Crochet</a> - 7 replies </div>

<div>Does anyone know where to find an acurate crochet pattern for a bra/halter top? I have tried some free patterns out there on the web, but none have been successful. Also I have had no luck with finding patterns in stores. I am making this for myself, and am a 34 ribcage D cup. I cannot seem to be able to get the increasing and decreasing right for the cups. I would be willing to buy a pattern, especially if I could get the perfect fit! :o) <br/>Thanks, <br/>Shazadi</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/bellydancecrochet">Belly Dance Crochet</a> - 6 replies </div>

<div>it's Ukrainian, but i've never seen such awesome patterns and young looking fashions!! it is kind of expensive if you do find it in the US, but i think it'd be worth the price if the patterns are written like the ones over here. Does anyone know if the patterns are written the same? <br/> <br/>thanks :) <br/> <br/>here's a link.... <br/> <br/>http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=9427811</div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/bellydancecrochet">Belly Dance Crochet</a> - 9 replies </div>

<div>I am wanting to make some budget, crocheted, bra covers for beginners and those who want a bit of fantasy in their lives. My thought is to make a beaded and sequined bra cover in crochet thread (probably double thread with the fancy bits on one thread and nothing on the other). I've got a pattern for a halter style, string, bikini top from the 80's which is good for those who can go braless. For those of us who must wear a good support bra, this is not the right pattern. <br/> <br/>My question is what to do about the straps, sides and backs? I could make something that just covered the front if worn with a short vest or a gwhazi (sp???) coat. I'm thinking about two separate cup covers that could be overlapped for fit and have a cord/ribbon run through the bottom. Lay the bra on a flat surface, put the crocheted pieces down; adjust them, and run the ribbon through the bottom. The degree of modesty is up to the wearer. </div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/bellydancecrochet">Belly Dance Crochet</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>So this might be taboo..... but oh well. I'm going to guess that some of you sew in addition to crocheting..... <br/> <br/>I'm really interested in sewing a halter top much like these: <br/> <br/>http://tribes.tribe.net/synari-designs/photos/972e4348-230c-45a4-b4e7-19c05298a882 <br/> <br/>http://tribes.tribe.net/rachelbrice/photos/aec0fad2-3cdb-4213-b011-50610166e175 <br/> <br/>http://www.firefly-path.net/gallery/photos/Com/pic52.jpg <br/> <br/>I'm going to a rave in July, and desire a bellydance inspired outfit. But I'll be dancing all night and jumping around. So I figure a halter will look good, keep me cool, and strap "the girls" down in place. <br/> <br/>Sooo....any one know of any patterns or actual tops I can purchase? <br/>Or if anyone has drafted a pattern and is willing to share I'll pay for shipping.... <br/> <br/>I just want a halter top base in BLACK that I can cover in glow-in-the-dark/black light reactive stuff..... <br/> <br/>THANKS! </div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/bellydancecrochet">Belly Dance Crochet</a> - 2 replies </div>

<div>Well, I guess I should join the tribe since I'm the poster girl LOL *wink* ... <br/> <br/>Seriously though, I'm stoked that this tribe exists. Crochet is such a part of history and therefore a beautiful part of costuming.

<div>greetings everyone. <br/> <br/>i've been trying to crochet belts with limitted success - i'm still really new to crochet (and even newer to belly dance crochet). but i've been drumming for about 13 years and playing darbuka for about 6 years. anyway, i read about the crochetted zill covers and was wondering if anyone had any patterns/helpful ideas for drum covers per chance. i want the bag/cover to be sturdy enough to protect my darbuka while i'm travelling to and from performances. <br/> <br/>any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks. </div> <div> posted in <a href="http://tribes.tribe.net/bellydancecrochet">Belly Dance Crochet</a> - 0 replies </div>
