  5. I think I did something wrong. The body isn't straight behind the head, it's kinda off to the side. Hmm. Will have to try again I think.
    P.S. The green is awesome! I actually have the same colour and am using that :P

  6. Iv had the same problem with the head being at an angle. Do you slip stitch into the first stitch on every round?

    1. Hey everyone same thing but don't worry just twist it straght mine looked great.
      The pattern is just like that and you can move the increases around if it really bothers u so much.

  9. Hey sorry you guys are having difficulties with the pattern. It was the first one I wrote. I can make one in a little bit and see if I can't fix it so the head doesn't twist. It is probably just a matter of moving some stitches around. :)

  10. Wait.. I definitely sl st and chain up in my rounds. So maybe if you were doing complete rounds it would turn out weird. Sorry I will make sure I add that to the patterns.

  16. Thanks for the pattern! I just made one for my friend, and it's super adorable! My head started coming out backward even though I added a sl st, but I just switched some stitches around and it came out perfectly. :)

  17. I love the pattern! Im just confused about rows 26-28, what do you mean dec around? How do you go from 36 to 30 stitches? Thanks!

    1. For row 26-28 repeat pattern around.
      EG. 4 sc 1 dec 4 sc 1 dec etc

      Hope this helps! :D

    2. 26-28:

      "Row 26 4 sc, 1 dec around (30)
      Row 27 3 sc, 1 dec around (24)
      Row 28 2 sc, 1 dec around (18)"

      The stitches are getting less, not more so you wouldn't be going from 30 to 36 anyways!

  18. I made a super adorable white sparkly llama with a curly forelock and some hair on the chest area! I don't know if you know, but you llama is supposedly "inside out"

    1. I do know that I crochet "inside out". I actually prefer the way it looks, but that's just me. :)
