They look fantastic! Very cute!
ReplyDeleteThese are really cute, and I want to make them but am confused by what '(sc dec, sc in each st)' means exactly - decrease by a single chain in each ... not sure what st means?
ReplyDeleteAnd, on the scarfs, did you just weave a contrast color through to get two tones?
Thanks. :)
Sabrina, that "each" in row 5 & 14 should be "next". "st" just means stitch. so that line means to single crochet decrease, then single crochet and repeat that around the round.
ReplyDeleteFor the scarves, I surface crocheted on the back (I prefered the look of the lines rather than the crochet). A tutorial on that can be found here:http://morepjs.blogspot.com/2009/08/surface-crochet-crochet-tutorial.html
Thanks so much! I looked at the surface crochet and it looks pretty easy. I'm excited to make some of these cute guys. :)
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! Thanks so much for sharing.
ReplyDeletehi, they look so qute! but...you go from 12 to 8 to 6...doesn't make sense to me...
ReplyDeleteRound 3-4: sc in each sc around (12)Got it.
Round 5: (sc dec, sc in next st) around (8)? must be 6?
Stuff head
Round 6: (sc dec, sc in next 2 sts) around (6)?must be 4?
