Sc = single crochet Inc = increase (2 single crochets in the same stitch)

[@ihavecripplingdepression9562]

thank you so much for this comment, I'm new in this and I don't know yet what that means, since English is not my native language

[@nadineselim7337]

This would be great if you added how many stiches in total are there in each round but overall the video is very good and great to understand❤

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

Thank you! & Yes unfortunately I forgot to do that, but I have since written a pattern for it and I have the stitch count and everything on there.

[@nadineselim7337]

​@WhimsicalCrochet Thank you for replying, I finished this moon and it turned out so cute.❤

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

@@nadineselim7337 yay! If you have instagram I’d love to see it if you could send me a message! Mine is @WhimsicalCrochettt

[@kynaleemom]

Nice! Great job, I'm proud of you! Can you add a list of what the terms and acronyms you're using mean? For those of us super duper beginners? ;) Love you!

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

Yes:) thank you!

[@carmenperezabad3876]

Thank you so much sweetie!!!

[@Arvadvvad]

For round 8 do you do sc4 or sc2 im confused it says both😅

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

You sc2, increase, & then sc4, increase. Then continue to repeat sc4 & increase until the end of the round. Basically you’re throwing off where the increases land so that you can avoid getting those areas that point out if you increase at the same spot everytime

[@beyzakadioglu]

In the 3rd round you made 18 sc but mine is 24 sc. Where am I making a mistake?

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

Hmmm, I’m not sure. Maybe you’re increasing every stitch? It should be 6sc in round 1, 12 in round 2, and 18 in round 3. Round 3 should be 1sc, 1 increase, repeat. Are you increasing every stitch?

[@beyzakadioglu]

@@WhimsicalCrochet I finished it completely and it very nice, thank you

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

You’re welcome! So proud of you for making your own! I’m glad you were able to follow along❤️

[@raventoleman2324]

Needs to have a stitch count for each round, otherwise great pattern and video

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

Thank you, the reason I didn’t is because I don’t count my stitches in general, I just make sure I have the right amount of sc (no increase) at the end because it’s easier for me that way. if it’s more helpful for others to count stitches, I’ll make sure to do that from here on out.

[@nicanic420]

I made this, would you be ok if i put this on my etsy shop

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

Ofc, if you could just credit Whimsicalcrochettt as the pattern designer in the description that would be amazing.

[@nicanic420]

@@WhimsicalCrochet yes ofc!! Ty

[@kristenwizzard8205]

Hi. Is there sound to this video? I press the unmute area, but it remains silent.

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

There is no sound:) I have a 1 year old daughter who is very attached to me and wouldn’t let me record, so I waited until she went to sleep but then you could hear my husband snoring😭🤣 after many attempts I just muted it😂

[@lexiwhitecotten]

I want to make this but don’t have chunky yarn, what would I have to do if I did it with 5.5 mm yarn?

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

You could try doubling up on the yarn, following the pattern but with 2 stands of yarn together.

[@annemargarethlatosa4955]

How many grams did you use?

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

About 100 grams, maybe a tiny bit more.

[@AndreaBell-yn3kb]

Mine keeps ending up like an actual crescent roll, I’m still learning so I’m not sure why

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

Hey, if you send a pic of what it’s looking like to my instagram I can try and help you figure it out. It’s @WhimsicalCrochet

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

Also, if you are new to crochet it might be a tension issue, try sizing down to a 8mm and see if that helps

[@MrFroggy1837]

Try to crochet more loose! It helped me and soon enough im sure you will find your correct tension

[@teresa1265]

So nice!! If I want the pillow to be bigger how should I expand it ?? Should I do all the stitches in reverse?

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

The pillow is roughly 12” tall, I’m not sure how to make it bigger while keeping it’s shaped but I will work on it and let you know once I do

[@teresa1265]

@@WhimsicalCrochet thank you ❤️❤️❤️

[@lav_blossom]

How much yarn did it take to make this?

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

A little more than 100g of bulky 6

[@Pelsa_TaylorsVersion]

How much chenille do you need

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

I’m not sure the exact amount, but less than 100g, around 70g or 70 yards.

[@Pelsa_TaylorsVersion]

@@WhimsicalCrochet okay thanks

[@NM-qf9zt]

Thank you! ❣

[@WhimsicalCrochet]

You’re welcome 💕

[@MrFroggy1837]

I'm just wondering how many skiens did you use?

[@WhimsicalCrochet]
