[@Soffity]

I’m an experienced crocheter so find the speed and explanations you give perfect for me, thanks so much for a beautiful pattern that is a delight to make. I love interesting, challenging designs.♥️🇦🇺

[@DebiDearest]

You might be able to pick out the few mistakes I’ve made 🙈

[@Soffity]

@@DebiDearest you did such a good job with the video. Ok a couple of dc you called front post dc but it was obvious what you meant. I take my hat off to anyone who can design, I’ve been trying for years and never end up with a flat fabric. I can do very basic design but as soon as I try something like you do the stitch count goes haywire and it is a mess. I live in rural Australia so the internet is a godsend.

[@DebiDearest]

@@Soffity I think that’s been the most challenging part. This one does pucker a little in the middle but can be blocked to lay flat. My new design I’ve gotten better at being consistent. I think the main thing is stick to a repeat number. I usually do 8, I’m trying 12 this time. Add one stitch to each repeat as you make it grow. Hope that helps maybe. ❣️

[@Soffity]

@@DebiDearest thank you so very much, you’re the first designer to reply and give me any help so I really appreciate it. I am so grateful to you for your time and your lovely designs. How do you add a stitch count when you have so many bobbles and popcorns etc etc. How do you know which equals what. I’m not expecting you to answer but how did you work all that out, to me it’s the worst maths test of all time with the most beautiful result. We all have our fortes and design is one of yours, ♥️🇦🇺

[@Soffity]

Btw I’ve purchased the pattern so looking forward to making it, I don’t have any Aran weight as it’s not a common yarn here in Australia so I’ll be making it in DK with a 4mm hook, so wish me luck, won’t be as large of course.

72 thumbs down - What in the world such ignorants are doing here??? The design is gorgeous and designed for crocheters with the taste and understanding of the beauty of such work.

[@DebiDearest]

Ada Musolf probably had a hard time, got mad, and hated. I’m sure I did something wrong even though I try my best. You can please everyone, at least KZbin sees up and down vote as engagement so in a sense down vote is still in my favour.

[@DebiDearest]

Ada Musolf I think part of the problem is people want me to hold their hand every step of the way but I only show what’s needed to know for the round. There’s already people out there who teach the basics

Lilly of the Valley we all start somewhere and sometime we are the only thing that holds us back. ❣️ I have some smaller projects maybe you could start with and see how you like to follow along. There’s also speed controls to slow things down too.

[@sharona4274]

Man! I’ve learned more stitches in 3 rounds than in 3 yrs of lessons. How many stitches do you create yourself?? Impressed.

[@DebiDearest]

Its a mix of learned and created stitches or modified. All my design :)

[@splashingpuddles1277]

I had to go up a size hook so I may not be completing the last rows. Joanns had a buy 3 get 2 free sale so I was trying to find colors that would go together and were still available in their store. I'm also just terrible at deciding on color combinations anyway.

[@traceysmith3350]

Gorgeous! I love the standing stitches, and i don’t understand why we chain instead of standing stitches? I’m new to this, and never really understood why I can’t use the stitch for the pattern

[@DebiDearest]

You can use what works best for you. I think it all depends on the pattern what technique is used.

Amazing beautiful work. When you change your yarn I noticed that you yarn over your hook a couple of times and just incorporate it in your work. I have never seen this before. It seems to be a very good and secure way to change to another color. I’d like to learn it. Again, very beautiful work.

[@DebiDearest]

Carol Vangundy thank you. I learned the technique from Moogly. It’s called a “standing stitch” I believe I do my standing hdc a little differently that Moogly does.

[@DebiDearest]

Search KZbin for “Moogly standing dc” and there’s a video to better explain how it’s done. :)
