I was thinking about grading 1 more set of size for the pattern, but ended up with XS-S and M-L for the video. So if you’d like me to grade XL-XXL, please request in the comment. Once there are enough requests, I’ll work on it and include in this description.
✧ Are you an Absolute Beginner?
I'd suggest you to start with a few simpler projects from this playlist: • Absolute-Beginner Crochet Projects - Start...
✧ About Gauge:
Usually I rely on the elasticity of the crochet fabric, which flexibly “wraps” around our bodies as garments, instead of stitches’ measurement laid on a flat surface, which is gauge.
However, for this pattern, the Heart shape turns out better with sturdy and (slightly) thick fabric. Therefore, we should regard the Semi-circles’ measurement (illustrated at 10:28) - the 2 base pieces from which the heart shape is built.
✧ Yarn Weight / Category vs. WPI method?
The yarn thickness is standardized into different categories (e.g. Dk No. 3, Aran No. 4, Chunky No. 5, etc.). Normally, you can always look for this information on the yarn label. However in case the label does not provide category info, you can use WPI method to figure out, as described in this link: https://www.craftyarncouncil.com/stan...
Unfortunately, yarn in the same category can also vary in thickness. So I’d highly recommend the WPI method because it’s much more accurate and reliable. (Proof: 6 WPI lies in both category No. 5 and No. 6)
✧ Meter or Gram?
Using METER instead of gram, as a unit to determine the amount of yarn, is the closest to being accurate, and applicable to all yarn categories (you can always find meter info on the yarn label).
Meanwhile using gram would be kinda risky, because with the same amount of grams you may get more or less yarn depending on the types of material (e.g. Cotton yarn is heavier than acrylic. So with 50gr of No. 4 cotton you'll get about 80 meters BUT with 50gr of No. 4 acrylic you'll get at least 100 meters).
Ultimately, it's always better to have more yarn than NOT enough, so you may wanna buy a little extra just in case!
