#2026PatternTest : 20

Only used chenille once before (pattern test for Komo the Pompom bat), but this was so cute and I wanted to challenge myself. Growth, right?!
May 26, 2026
Started making pops.
May 27, 2026
Finished the pops.
May 28, 2026
Starting joining the pops.
I don’t have much experience with chenille and I’ve come to these conclusions:
- I need a st marker in every stitch
- I need to make it in one go, because otherwise I lose my place
- I need more stitch markers ;)

Doing other side of body. Stitch-marker-tastic!! Tricky for me to figure out otherwise.
On the ‘extra’ st we made to even up the sides, i went into / inserted the hook into the stitch below it, because I hadn’t finished off my tail ends and the st was pulling loose.

Head. Shed-loads of st markers again!
May 31, 2026
Added eyes. Needed to add st to R6, as the head wasn’t centred (per suggestion in the pattern).
Needed to colour-code the decreases in R7 with st markers, so I knew which FLs to use!!
Just got to sew in ends now.
