ouiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii depuis une dizaine d'années... J'avais appris de ma grand-maman quand j'étais petite, puis je n'ai plus touché au tricot jusque vers 25 ans, quand, me désespérant devant l'uniformité des fringues dans les magasins, j'ai voulu faire mes propres habits... alors j'ai demandé à ma grand-maman de m'enseigner ça encore une fois puis, avec le temps, j'ai appris à créer et réaliser mes idées moi-même... c'est cool, je tricote encore souvent avec elle sur mes aprèm de congé...
je comprends que, si on fait ça pour un magasin, on puisse se lasser,... les gens sont pénibles tu tricotes encore pour toi ou tu fais une longue pause??

Cute! Did you use a cotton acrylic blend, or just cotton?

Mm nice
You work with cotton a lot? And if so do you mind if I wask you some questions, I"m planning on knitting a wonderwoman cosplay for halloween and am working with a pure cotton yarn for the first time (yeah I know I should have gotten an acrylic blend but this is the first yarn I've worked with thats not pure acrylic... XD)

Wow those look really good!
So as I've said I've never worked with cotton before, and I was wondering about the care and such? Also cotton supposedly hangs a bit, will I need to add ribbing or anything to a ruffled skirt...?

the care is pretty easy... I wash it the same way as my other wool stuff: in my washing machine with the "wool" program... they say it can be washed with regular cotton T-shirts, too, but I haven't tried...
only one thing: the color bleeds A LOT when you wash it for the 1st time, so generally I wash it twice by hand before putting it in the machine with other stuff...
As for the "hangs a bit" part, it's true, but it depends much on the weight of the cotton... on the "mint leave" and the "purple and purple" I used quite a heavy cotton, and it indeed hangs quite a bit, but the cotton I used to the other ones don't, not more than regular wool anyway... I don't know exactly which version of Wonderwoman you'll be dressed in, but I think I'd put a ribbon around the waist anyway to stabilize the whole piece...
hope it helps!! and you can ask me more questions if necessary, no problem

I am worried it'll hang as it'd ruin the piece...
I"m planning on modeling it after the traditional wonder woman, with the addition of a skirt on the bottom (same light blue/stars pattern) and a cape on the top to cover my shoulders/make it a bit more modest.

Is there any way I can make the color not bleed so much the first wash, as the pattern has some blue and white for the bottom as well as the yellow and red and I woudnl't want to ruin it...
Also advice on how to stabilize the piece/any stitches I can use to make it stronger and less likely to hang?

Mm thanks I will defeintly do the vinegar thing!
Any advice for teh actual knitting of the piece, as I'm pretty sure what I"m going to do for the ruffled skirt (Knit a large piece for a skirt and then waist band to attatch it to, and since you advised ribbon I'll thread a ribbon through the waist band, an elastic piece if I do two pieces a skirt and top) but any advice for knitting the top? I've never even knitted a sweater before so... ><

That's a really good idea!
Only problem is I do not have any sweetheart neckline stuff...
Althoguh I've got plenty of old t-shirts I suppose I could cut one into the right shape....

or mix the measuring: a neckline you like with another in the shape you like
