    Hello and increasing pattern question!

    Hello my fellow crocheters. My name is Heather! I'm excited to a be a new member here. I don't know why I never thought of joining a crochet forum before. I'll definitely come by again. I have some great tips for making hats.

    Anyway, I'm desperate for help with my Christmas present for my boyfriend. I want to make him a mustache pillow that is fairly big for his bed but I can't figure out how to something bigger.

    I found the this pattern:
    Free Pattern: Crocheted handlebar moustache « bluestocking stitcher's crafty stuff

    I cant figure out how to increase the pattern to a bigger size... It's bugging the heck out of me and when I try to figure it out online I'm totally lost. Can any of you guys help me out before I just buy one for him

    Ok so it looks like thisthread posted just fine so.... I'll type again.

    Hello and Happy Thanksgiving!

    My name is Heather and I'm excited to become a part of your community. I don't know why I didn't think to join a crochet forum in the future. I'm sure it comes in hand! I make a lot of hats, so I hope to be helpful to all of you one day, too.

    Anyway, I need help with a crochet project that I'd like to do for my boyfriend for Christmas. I'd like to make him a mustache pillow, one that is fairly big.

    I found a pattern for a regular size one here: Free Pattern: Crocheted handlebar moustache « bluestocking stitcher's crafty stuff

    But I can't figure out how to make it bigger/ I've looked online and it all confuses the heck out of me. Can anyone try to exomplain to me how I can make this much larger?

    Heather,

    Welcome to the group! It is nice to meet you! I merged your two threads and left the duplicate so that you can get past new member moderation in the system as set up by the administrator. I also sent you a pm.

    Also, I have looked for a larger mustache pillow for crochet and did not really find anything. It would take some trial and error if you don't have something similar to go by. You can multiply the pattern, but I am not sure by how much.

    We do have members who are very experienced, so maybe when they check in they may be able to offer more assistance.
