The thing I love about crocheting is it goes so fast and it's easy to undo a row and start over...so try doing it a different way (e.g. not going to the semi-colon) and see if that works). Or sometimes a patten will not seem to be working but if you keep going it starts to turn out. Where did you get the pattern? A book, online or on etsy? If it's online or etsy there could be an error...you could email and see if they could help you out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crochet-help-please#post-653454 Tue, 19 Mar 2013 23:42:31 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 653454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a total crochet beginner, but I'm making a baby blanket. So far I feel comfortable with all the stitches, but the directions are making me crazy!</p> <p>I'm pretty positive that I did row 1 correctly. But row 2 is confusing me. I thought the repeat was just the stuff between the asterisks, but it goes all the way to the semi-colon, right? It would make sense if all of the 3dcs go in the skipped spaces from row 1, but it doesn't seem to be working that way. Any advice?</p> <p>With larger hook, ch 90.</p> <p>Row 1 (Right Side): Dc in 6th ch from hook, dc in next 4 ch, ch 1, skip next ch, [dc in next 5 ch, ch 1, skip next ch] 13 times, dc in last ch; turn.</p> <p>Row 2: Ch 3, dc in first dc, * ch 2, skip next 2 dc, sc in next dc, ch 2 **, 3 dc in next ch-1 space; repeat from * to last 2 sts, end at **; skip next ch, 2 dc in next ch; turn.</p> <p>Row 3: Ch 3, dc in next dc, * dc in next ch-2 space, ch 1, dc in next ch-2 space **, dc in next 3 dc; repeat from * to last 2 sts, end at **; dc in next dc and top of ch-3; turn. </p>
