Multi-Blue Granny Square Crochet Maxi-Skirt Update #6

Not much of an update. I haven't touched this project since the last one.
I've been thinking of taking off a couple of rows to make it a shorter skirt. I live in the Caribbean and this skirt is warmer than expected 😖 🔥
While I contemplate that, I'll finally be working on the waistband. I'm going to do it with double crochet and do decreases to bring it to the size of my waist.
Wish me luck, because I'm doing this with no reference whatsoever!

Update on my crochet skirt! All granny squares were completed, blocked AND sewn together! And it looks fantastic!
I bought lining fabric for the skirt, but honestly I don't think it will be needed!
What IS needed now though, is to weave in all those ends 😰 I also need to make the waistband.
The skirt is the width of my hips (9 squares) so I need to gradually cinch in the waist (there's a word for it in crochet, but it's not coming to mind) I also want to crochet around the bottom edge to 'clean up' the hem.
Still a lot of work, but I can't wait to finish and wear it!

Coming down to the last 6 squares for each colour! I've been weaving in all the ends as I complete each square using this needle I got in an assorted needle set. I have those plastic needles, but the eye holes are too big to go through my stitches. I need a threader (the yellow thing) to thread this needle, but other than that, it works like a dream!
