I like that she explained what a decrease and increase was because as a beginner I had no idea

[Stitchesandmore]

I’m working on a lady bug for the first time ( much bigger). This tutorial really helped. Thanks so much.

My sister inlaws co worker asked if I could make her as ladybug. This is perfect . Thank you

It is adorable and your tutorial is so easy to follow. Do you make a mother size to go with the darling baby ladybugs? Thank you for such a cute pattern. ❤️

For the body, I started with red yarn and switched to black for round 11. For round 12 and after, do I continue with black yarn?

Hi, I love to learn this and its so cute.
Is the increase means 2sc in one hole?

[carisablancas]

[keggo]
