Notes

Just started Moe Mo of Change

But it will become a Mamma Moe of Change

A new pattern to be released soon

I liked the outcome of this pattern ..but I got a bit bored

So I’m hoping Mamma spices it up a bit wink
*********************************************

Now I am going to test this New Mama .. Looking forward to it slightly_smiling_face

Starts on 20th April 2019 ..

Hmmm … lots of post stitches ..
Lots of post treble stitches … I personally love them
Just remember to pull them up a bit.

I have to say I love this pattern …
I’m just enjoying it so much!

Still the main thing is counting …
Apparently there are loads more post stitches to come ..
I’ll update as I find them :)

I have finished all the post stitches …
Lucky I like them …there are sooooo many !!!!!
Be prepared !!

Actually I should add …there are a lot of post cross stitches .. you think you’re done and another row pops up …
About 15 rows … They are hard and tiring .. but they look great !

My left hand ring finger (yarn hand) is post stitch exhausted haha

Just updated photos … and saw whatever I had written yesterday was not saved slightly_frowning_face
And of course I don’t remember haha

Out of all of the rows so far … 76 caught me

I always have issues getting placement and counting the right number of stitches. So I missed the little bit where it says cl in the next stitch ..
So I was missing a cl ….

That was frustrating ….
The post stitch rows are nothing compared to rows like this that catch me every time !

At least you get a heads up :)

So I have finished slightly_smiling_face

My shoulder is screaming at me .. lot’s of post stitches seem to trigger my bursitis and everything else …

I loved making this ..

It is challenging and tiring … I think that’s because I was enjoying it a lot and I kept going when I should have rested here and there.

I like my Moe Mo …but I got a little bored in the Granny sections ..
Mama is not boring … counting as usual is an absolute must !

I did change 1 thing .. and it was personal preference only ..

The last row of SC I put them in all the stitches and not in the ch1.
I like the but longer look of the stitch and it made no difference to the end product for me. But if you crochet tightly I’d say follow the pattern and do a SC in the ch1 as well smiley

Just to be clear , I did do the sc the way the pattern states it should be done … you can see the photo 2nd last …
The last photo has the sc in each stitch.

I used Primadonna yarn , which is virtually the same as Red Heart Unforgettable … just as hard to frog ..
4 packs , less have a ball. So 4500m roughly.
5.5 Tulip hook.
I haven’t measured it .. but the finished photo is on top of a queen size bed :)
