Lovin' the color dynamic.. Very contrasting.
Looks good.
Might look cleaner if you snip off the frizz, but it's all about what you're going for.

Re: trying on making crocheted dreads
It looks good from what I can see, but it is hard with the picture quality.
I personally wouldn't snip loose hairs from any kind of dread as I feel like it makes them prickly. And crocheted dreads are intended to mimic actual dreads, which are never 'perfect' and therein lies their charm.
Crocheting is like any other dread method; it takes time and practise to get it how you like it. Once you get it to a point where youi are happy with what you have done, you've cracked it!

What, that? It's a spade.

it looks good to me, but it is very hard to tell with that picture quality. Do you have access to a scanner? maybe you could scan it and then we would be able to see very clearly what was going on
