Garden Romp CAL 2017 Special Stitches

Here’s a list of all the stitches used within the pattern. For some of the basics I’ve linked outside sources. Other than the basics, please review these stitches and their steps before working them in the pattern. After I worked part 4 of Sophie’s Universe recently I realized I work my TR-CL stitches slightly different. For all my described stitches I’ve included a link to a photo tutorial of how they are worked.
