Hi everyone! Hope you are having a great day! :) anyways, i am making a jacket for a friend, and she loves the look of baggy clothes that are cinched at the wrist and waist. This is my first time crocheting with elastic thread, and I am using 24/7 Cotton DK Weight yarn and carrying it along with this elastic. I haven't ordered it yet, I wanted to know if this was the kind of elastic that i should buy to crochet with. I will be crocheting slip stich blo (everyone's favorite) ribbing for the cuffs & waist, and also, how would I weave in the ends? would i do it as i normally would with yarn? In my mind, the elastic is sort of cinching the ribbing/holding it together? so if i weave it in normally, is it at risk to come loose? Please let me know if you guys weave in your ends with elastic in a different way.

Thank you for reading!! :D

Hello everyone, in January 2026 I bleached the bottom half (as in, if you took a strand of my hair, the top half would be my natural dark brown, and the bottom half bleached) and put Arctic fox Aquamarine on it. Then in march, i went with Purple Af, and beginning of May/end of April I reapplied Purple Af. Then mid May, I added some Posideon. A lot, I know. 😅 Now it's really dark purpley/blue and i want to go back to my first color, aquamarine. How would i remove all the color without bleach? I have developer, I would rather not use it, but I will if it gets the stuff out of my hair so I can use Aquamarine again. Please remember that this is only the bottom half (starting like an inch or two under my shoulders) and I do not want to use more bleach in fear of accidentally getting bleach on my natural hair.

Thank you for taking the time to read & respond :)
