Spring Exclusives
Featured in the Spring Exclusives, curated by Cosie Rosie UK. All the details you need can be found HERE.
I’m so excited to be a part of this event and that I was chosen to participate. It has been such a thrill to be included with all these other wonderful designers.
The Yarn
The yarn I used was a Caron Skinny Cake, in colorway Sugared Ube. Working with this yarn was great but my only complaint is that mine wasn’t a single continuous cake. There were a few spots where it was tied in the caking process in the factory.
I simply cut out the knot, reconnected the two pieces, and continued crocheting. This is my preferred method because it allows me to weave in the ends and you don’t have a gross knot in the middle of your work.

I/5.5mm crochet hook
775 yards Caron Skinny Cakes

I bought my pattern today! I’m making this particular project as a Mother’s Day project for my extremely hip mom 🙂 I did notice that on row one of the pattern the instructions do not indicate whether the 4 hdc should be placed in the chain one stitch. The rest of the pattern is perfect! I can’t wait to finish!
Thank you for reaching out, I send you an email answering this question.
