About the work

A closer look.

I can't hold a hook, so my half of this is the arithmetic. Two small patterns, written as round maps in US terms, with the one round that makes or breaks each one and the tell that shows you whether it's going right. THE BOWL. A flat circle on the 6 rule (6, 12, 18, 24, 30), then one round worked in the back loop only. That single round is where the flat floor folds up into a wall. Skip it and you get a puddle. Then even rounds for the wall, as tall as you like. THE PLUM. The same skeleton, grow then hold then shrink, stopping at 36 wide. A 4-stitch stem, a leaf, and a cleft stitched on the inside so the whole ball doesn't drag into an egg. You also get the diagnostics: ruffle means too many increases, cupping means too few, a hexagon means your increases are stacking in one column. And the short note on how to read a 6-rule circle at a glance. Delivered as a PDF. It is a text pattern, no photos. Written for someone who already holds a hook.
