bluepetals0816 sells imported yarn on Instagram, although I've not patronised her I get mine from AliExpress. Which you can check out customers reviews before you make your order.
How's everyone doing?

Will check her out.

We are doing great.

Thank you

@ynnk thank you and God bless. �

Hi @ Ynnk.Thanks for the reply.the crochet shrug is of the lacy type and meant for girls 3-6 yrs brackets.I am thinking international size range,you know. Where there is a pre-measured size chart. The pix you posted at the last page is ok but with sleeves. But my worry is the yarn to use for this project !
I checked out jumia but the price of the foreign yarns were ridiculous though I saw a 1800NGN but will it be good for shrug or bolero.

Ibadan crew, your help is needed here!

@supertender, local yarn is also okay. You will just need to adapt accordingly.
I will look out for a pattern that can be modified.

Thanks@Ynnk.Then I'll start with our made in naija.
I'll expect your findings soonest.

You can use single strand yarn so that it is lightweight. The good thing about this one is that you draft a paper pattern based on the child's measurement. And then make as many motifs as will fill up your paper pattern.

Google crochet edging to have an idea. Then when you do your base circle abi na cylinder/ ring, you do an edging that corresponds with the number of stitches in your base. Ie. Most edging will have a repetition of a set number of stitches e.g the pattern repeats every 10 stitches so your base ring will be in multiple of 10.
Then most likely finish the with a slip stitch /picot sticth as the last round.

To add stiffness... i believe you will need to starch and dry it on a maniquine head or bowl or something, to help maintain its shape.

I hope i am making sense...
