It's finally Long enough now, it's crochet 5mm, knit ,crochet, knit all on a 15mm needles or hook, so now part two that is adding the ruffles.To get the effect required I will have to crochet on the out side of the knitting.
I think in a bright yarn, as I want the structure as if an out side skeleton.
Crochet on top of knit defiantly gives a bone like structure. This as well as the ruffles should make for an interesting effect.
