Hi! I'm Tamara Kelly, designer and blogger at Moogly - www.mooglyblog.com/ On the blog I share my original crochet and knit patterns, as well as video and photo tutorials, pattern roundups, giveaways, and any other fun stuff I can find! I hope you'll check it out! Ready for a Crochet Adventure? Join me on a trip to England in October 2024!

So happy I came across this video! I was making a balaclava without a pattern and doubting my DC in the round skills, but to my happy surprise I see your video doing the same technique ! (ch 2 but don't count it as a DC, DC in the same stitch to avoid the gap and not crocheting into the ch from the first round) :) feels good to know my instincts were right
FANTASTIC ! I need to remove about 3-4 rows of 170 chain lapghan of SC & HDC of PRAIRIE STITCH that will have an ALPINE border added when I finish. Those first few rows are too loose on one end 😱😵💫 i can do without them BUT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF I could put them back on and if so how? It seems it would be reversed? Anyways THANKYOU
Thank you for sharing how to make this! Can you let me know what phone holder and desk tripod you are using? If you have an Amazon link to them, I will go through that. Thanks!
I love your video! Firstly you speak and explain everything, and secondly you crochet at my speed. I look forward to watching more of your videos Tamara. Smile
I downloaded this pattern. I'm using Hobbii Mega Ball yarn. Idk how to make a swatch gauge. It recommended a 9 mm hook. It looked like utter crap! I dropped down to the size recommended by the yarn label. 5.5 mm. I've got to remove the first row of my cable row. I'm off by 1 stitch! 🤦 I will conquer this! Wish me luck!
How about a straight forward do x stitches then one stitch then skip then into the x stitch instead of OR do this, OR you can do this. Those that are new to crochet don't need ORs.
Great question! For wider projects, there are hooks that have a cord on the end with a stopper - so the stitches can rest on your lap or table, and the weight of all those stitches doesn't stay on the hook.
It would be nice to have you show how you attach the face and spots. Nobody ever shows how to do it, so it looks the best. Do you whip stitch? Pick up one or both loops of the stitches on the piece you're attaching? Do a running stitch? Crocheting is the easy part. Attaching the pieces is harder to figure out.
Beautiful! Can you just continue this for a wider border... can you build on it.. or would this be more of a finish after several "plain" rounds? (I hope this makes sense)
You could! I would make the second round of shells in the sc sts and sc in the center st of the first round of shells. You'll have to play with the corners a bit, but otherwise that's it!
If you want the circle to be flat, then you want to increase each round by the same number of stitches you started with in Rnd 1. So let's say you made 10 sts in Rnd 1. Rnd 2 would have 20, Rnd 3 would have 30, Rnd 4 would have 40... and Rnd 16 would have 160 sts. Another example, let's say you had 6 sts in Rnd 1. Then Rnd 2 would be 12 sts, Rnd 3 would 18 sts, Rnd 4 would be 24 sts... and Rnd 16 would have 96 sts. Does that make sense?
I should add, how many stitches you use in the first Round depends on how tall the stitch is. Shorter stitches use fewer, taller stitches need more to lay flat. As a rule of thumb, I like to start with 6 sc, 10 hdc, or 12 dc.
This is Brilliant! I read a post on Quora that said this can't be done without losing one's sanity! Thank u for saving my son's blanket I am working on!
You got me girl ! You got me ! Your another subscriber from Melbourne.❤️i just finished my sweater today but wasn’t happy from the neckline….. your video saved me. Thank you !!
