Are the goggles worth making?

doublezero 5/31/2021 05:07 pm 625

So they seem cool but like idk when I'd wear them. I can't really wear them as like actual goggles because I wear glasses but most people don't wear then that way anyways. Idk are they hard to make? Do they take a long time? Do they use a lot of beads/string? I already have other things I'm working on but like it seems cool so.

they aren't very hard at all, but a little fiddly in parts. if you can make singles and a multistitch cuff, then you have the skills for a pair of goggles! they're a little time consuming the first time around, but second time not so much. they take quite a bit of elastic and (personally) I think they take a lot of beads. for wearing, they look best on top of the head, as on the face they look goofy (at least they do for me)

they took me 30 minutes or less, it took me about 30 minutes to get sizing right tho, so about 1 hour in total. I would say its pretty worth it

no quirk //

i made some last week and they only took me around 2 hours !! they werent very hard to make (i was following a tutorial so thats probably why)

they did take quite a lot of beads (not sure exactly how many , but around 2 multistitch cuffs and a couple singles worth) they did use a lot of string tho , and you need non-stretchy & stretchy string for it so that probably contributed to it

I have never made a pair but I assume you can make a pair of goggles and sell them on like Depop from 15$ which is a pretty good amount of money for something kandi related. So if you need money maybe try making a pair.
