Need help with vintage pattern wording
StayLoopy95 replied to StayLoopy95's topic in General Crochet Help
Thanks ladies! So when I finish this set of rows it should look more like a step up and not like a rounded curve. I think I was telling myself it was supposed to be curved and that's how I messed up. -

So I'm working on the back piece of a UK vintage dress pattern and am at the point where I shape the armholes but can't understand what I'm supposed to do. It's a straight piece with 80 stitches and it says Slip stitch across 6 tr, 3 ch = 1 tr, work to last 5 tr, turn (Can't figure out if I'm supposed to repeat the slip stitches at the end) Slip stitch across next 3 stitches, 3 ch = 1 tr, work at last 2 stitches, turn (2 stitches decreased at end of each row) Can someone put this in US terms that will make sense to me? Thanks!

Also do you know,if I work this pattern perfectly it will decrease right? I hate to get so far in and have problems.

Thanks! I'll remove the photos and be more specific, I'm new here. I know I haven't been crocheting two in the same space around the back seam so maybe I accidentally added some at the seam when I finished off with a slip knot. I'll try to fix it without unraveling the whole darn thing.

I'm working a vintage dress pattern which starts at the hem and works up to the waistline. For some reason instead of getting smaller it's getting wider as it goes up, I started with chain 232 for a M/L and now I have 247. I know I messed up around the back closure line but I have no idea how, I've been working 10 tr, 3 tr in the next stitch, 10 tr, skip 2 the whole pattern. In my head I can't understand how that would make it get smaller but can't find anything in the pattern I did wrong. Please help! I've been working on this forever and I need it to be right. Thanks!
