NOTE
You need to prepare 1 skein of each color.
The pattern is written using crochet terminology common in the
US.
The size of the finished piece may vary based on the yarn used and
the tension of your stitches. The size about 14 cm x 25 cm~5.5
inches x 9.8 inches.
This pattern is intended for personal use only. Distribution or
sharing of the pattern on social media or other platforms is
prohibited.
IMPORTANT NOTE BEFORE STARTING TO CROCHET
End the row by slip stitching.
Most of my patterns use the 'end the row with slip stitch' technique. I feel
it makes the stitches more aligned and prevents the finished piece from
skewing to one side. Of course, you can also use the spiral technique, but
the feet or arms might end up in the wrong position.
I feel that some crocheters may not be familiar with the correct operation
of the finishing part, so please pay more attention to this section.
for the end the row :
1. To ensure proper end-of-row placement, you should use a stitch
marker to mark your first crochet stitch.
2. After that, thread the needle through --> take the yarn and pull it
through to execute the slip stitch. (images 2, 3, 4) After that, gently
pull to tighten it a bit.
3. Yarn over and thread it through again to make a chain stitch, and then
make the first crochet stitch again where you slipped into to finish the
row. (images 5~11)
Here are some notes after finishing a row: chain 1 for SC and HDC, chain 2 for DC, chain 3
for TR or TRC.
