Frequently asked questions

Why is the body worked mostly in double crochet?

Each body circle is built from dc increases (12 to 60 sts) so the panels grow quickly and stay flat; Rnd 6 switches to BLO with a mix of sc and dc to form the edge that becomes the bag opening.

What is the difference between the two body pieces?

Both circles are identical through Rnd 6. On Rnd 7, Body 1 adds Ch 40 to form the strap while Body 2 adds only Ch 8, so the two halves connect into a strapped pouch.

How do I get the Piplup face right?

Work the beak, eyes, sky blue face marking, and white belly as separate flat pieces, then sew them onto one body circle before joining the two halves.
