ReplyDeletePok! Thanks
ReplyDeleteOlá, bom dia. Qual a Tex do fio que você utilizou? Muito obrigada por postar a receita, minha sobrinha me pediu e eu nunca nem tinha visto essa fofurinha! ;)
ReplyDeleteHi! I don't speak portuguese so I'm not sure if I understood the question... I used a DK light/medium weight yarn. Hope this helps!
DeleteHi, I love mooncake and can't wait to make a amigurumi of him!
ReplyDeleteHope much green yarn did you use? I have just under 350 yds, does that sound ok?
Hi! I'm not sure about yards because here they sell them by weight... I believe I didn't use more than 70 gr of a light DK weight
DeleteHi, I adore mooncake and can’t wait to get started! Thank you so much for publishing this pattern and with step by step photos too :)
ReplyDeleteI wanted to ask what the terminology under assembly meant, e.g. attach eyes between v14-20 of the head - what does the V refer to?
Sorry if this is a silly question, I am new to amigurumi :)
Hey! Thanks, I'm glad you like it! Sorry, I didn't translate that appatently, it's meant to be R as in Round :)
DeleteHow far apart did you see the eyes?
ReplyDeleteLove the pattern by the way
Hi, love that you love it! The eyes are about 10 to 8 stitches apart, so keeping that in mind I'd say see how you like them best, farther or closer :)
DeleteJust had to say I love this. We will be calling our baby "mooncake" whilst they are in vitro and so will be making this pattern to announce our pregnancy to my husband!!
ReplyDeleteHello there! Thank you so much for your pattern! It is so so cute! I know this is probably a very silly question but I am a beginner at crochet entirely and taught myself from your pattern. Something is not working out for me for the antenna and feet, they are all too wide.
ReplyDeleteFor example, for this row: *1 sc, sc inc* [18] => does this mean alternate simple and increasing stitches until you get to 18? Like every even number stitch is increasing?
Thank you! I'm sorry I'm so new.
Hello, thanks. In your example when you finished the round 2 you have 12 stiches, so in round 3 you do -1 sc, 1 sc inc, 1 sc, 1 sc inc, 1 sc, 1 sc inc, 1 sc, 1 sc inc, 1 sc, 1 sc inc, 1 sc, 1 sc inc- and when you finished the round you are going to have 18 stiches.
DeleteOhhh my gosh I get it now! I see what I was doing wrong! Thank you so so much for replying! <3 xx
DeleteHi! What colour of green yarn did you use for this project?
ReplyDeleteHey! I used a generic yarn so I couldn't tell you exactly, but it is a bright apple green.
DeleteMade this, loved it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Made it and it came out so good! Have to say though half way doing the body/head, I thought it would be more of a triangle but it worked out.
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it!!
