HELP ASAP please. its okay guys we chill now

I was crocheting this otter pattern right? and I was actually following it but somehow my ears ended up all wonky and i dont know what to do because they are way off and it took me 2 and a half rows to realize this. I already cut all my color changed too and im panicking. Please help. And no don’t say its cute this way its not.

JEEZ, is it built in the pattern (crocheted into?)

If it is a separate piece you have to crochet into then just cut it off and sew a new one

Tension issues! Usually patterns with bobbles or parts built into the body mention that you may have to change the sts due to tension.
You can either change the position only of the stitches that built the ears, or add scs until you reach the optimal ear position lol

yeah i just kept going. I dont even know how it would have worked because the st count was just weird.

It’s crocheted into it like leggy frogs legs and arms are.

oh ok. i would say maybe try the pattern again from scratch to see if it was a user error? not trying to be rude at all! i make a ton of user errors lol

I would frog and adjust the pattern to work. Lining up always changes based on yarn weight, hook size, and tension.
