Hola. Hermoso patrón, agradezco q lo compartas.. Solo tengo duda en la parte que dice st, como seria una puntada? No entiendo que punto es. Agradezco de ante mano q me pueda explicar
The pattern for the mane is WORNG!!!! You should crochet – skip 1, 3x dc in the next st (repeat 3x), skip 1, sl st!) repeat xy times. I was crocheting it for 2 hours and it was wrong 😩😩😩😩😩😩
Hi Silvia, the crochet pattern is correct 🙂 3 dc in next 3 st means the same what you wrote.
Hi, I purchased the pretty bunny in the pink dress pattern. There is an error with the legs row 9, decreasing from 42 to 33. For some reason I can’t figure out the number.
Thank you
Hi Doris, the pattern is correct. Please pay attention to the brackets when repeating instructions in the round.
Thank you for sharing these delightful patterns, although I do not crochet at present, would love to make some in the future.
Hello I love the lion pattern but can’t het row 9 on the legs to come out from 30 to 24 any suggestions
Hi Karen 🙂 Rnd 9 in other words: 9 sc, make dec 6 times, 9 sc [24]
