@Lara: To completely waterproof this apron, I would add fused plastic on the back of the apron as I did in my sit-upon project here. I have tried heat on the back of a crochet piece before and it doesn't work that well. But by adding flat layers of plastic and fusing it onto the back, you will find better results.

Hi! Nice apron!
I was just wondering: what if you covered the back of the apron with paper and ironed it? It could melt, but only in the part that goes against your body. Maybe you could keep the nice view of the crochet, and have a waterproof surface…
I can’t crochet so I can’t try this out, but perhaps you could try in a tiny surface to see if it works. Just a thought!

Yes, don’t use around an open flame for sure. It’s great to wear when cleaning and washing stuff though. It took a long time as it was such a big project. I can’t tell you the number of hours but it was a lot.

Very neat – I think I would forget though and accidentally set fire to it! hehe – how long did it take you to make this one?

Oh Neat! I would have never thought to crochet an apron. I’ll have to save up some bags for this one.
