This is my second crochet mooncake. This pattern is different from my first crochet mooncake. I made two version. One with lace yarn and a 2 mm hook and another with cotton yarn and a 3 mm hook. The lace yarn mooncake is smaller than the cotton yarn mooncake due to the size of the yarn and hook yet both are equally lovely and look quite like the real thing.
The tutorial video :
Mooncake (make 2 - top piece and bottom piece)
1) Start with a magic ring. Make 8 single crochet (sc) into the ring [total 8]
2) Make 2 sc into each stitch (inc) [total 16]
3) (Sc, inc) - 8X only on the back loop [total 24] - If bottom piece, no need back loop only
4) (Sc, inc, sc) - 8X [total 37]
5) (Sc next 3, inc) - 8X only on the back loop [total 40] - If bottom piece, no need back loop only
6) (Sc next 2, inc, sc next 2) - 8X [total 48]
7) (Sc, half double crochet (hdc) next 2, 2 double crochet (dc) in the same stitch, hdc next 2, sc, slip stitch) - 6X
After complete the top piece, continue to crochet the side. As for the bottom piece, cut the yarn now.
Flower pattern on top piece
Do this part first before continue to do the side. Now is to work on that 2 rows of front loop left on that top piece. Make a sc on one of the front loop on row 3. Chain 1 and move to row 5 and make 3 sc. Chain 1 and do a sc on the next stitch on row 3. Refer to tutorial video for better understanding.
The side of the mooncake
1) Double crochet all around, only on the back loop [total 54]
2) - 4) (Hdc, dc front post next 8) - 6X. Cut yarn and sew the bottom piece to the main piece. Add stuffing after sewing 3/4 way.
