Newest project done!
(lemmy.world)
I actually made this for work if you can believe it. My boss paid for the pattern and yarn. It's for some team building we are doing this week.
Based on the paid pattern below: Finely the Border Collie
This is so good! I have a book with a bunch of patterns for dogs but I don't love the way they turn out. This looks much more realistic. How difficult did you find the pattern?
Not hard, just fiddly for the fluffy bits. But it is explained with a video by the creator of the pattern. All the other stitches are classic single crochet and slip stitch.
That being said I wasn't too happy with how the pattern was written overall. Nothing insurmountable, just not what I am used to. Instead of "(2 SC, INC)x6" it would be "sc in next 2, 2 sc in sc, repeat the whole round" for example. I'm just not used to that writing style and I had to really concentrate to avoid making mistakes.
Yeah I had to read that multiple times to figure out what it meant! That's unfortunate because I would definitely mess it up and be sad when it didn't turn out as cute as I'd hoped!
