    Works up quickly

    I made this for my granddaughter for her birthday next month. I used Hobby Lobby Sugarwheel Cotton in the Sprinkles on Top colorway. The pattern was very easy to follow. I had never done the Cabbage Patch stitch, so I did watch a tutorial to ensure I was doing it correctly. It turned out so cute.

    Works up quickly, beautiful stitch definition.

    I used Caron cotton cakes, Beach view. It worked up very quickly. I added crocheted buttons and made a matching hat, all with one ball and still have some yarn leftover. Thank you for the patterns like this, keep 'em coming

    The link on how to do CR2dc stitch is no longer working, Any other suggestions for a visual tutorial, Checked multiple videos- different than this pattern. Thanks,

    Can you please clarify the direction on row 3 of body? What does 4 times mean? Do I do 4 v-st in each ch-1 space. Tried multiple ways- stitch count does not come up to 124. Very frustrating! thanks for help in advance.

    I'm finding the "crossed double crochet" section of this pattern tricky. I've looked for some YouTube tutorials but they seem a little different than what's called for in this pattern. Do you have a video tutorial of this stitch you could share?
