I love this! I have crocheted everything except the squares. I am confused on row 3.I am not understanding where to put the first fpdc and sc in the top of the st. Please if you could help me to understand so I can finish this I would so appreciate it. Maybe a diagram if possible. Thank you so much for any help!
For the very first stitch you will go around the stitch you joined to right below where you are when you ch 1, then you will go back down into the top of that same stitch with the sc. It is kind of tricky. If you don’t get it send me an email to [email protected] so I can help you with with a picture.
Hi! It’s me again I have been trying to get your instructions in my brain but no matter what I do still can’t figure it out. Sending email at your request. Sorry to be such a pain but really appreciate the help you can provide. Thanks again.
