Question
Yuricita
Hello!
I would like to make a ruffle edge to put on my diaper cover. The cover has 18 sts.
1)
To make a ruffle, I'm following the book below, and it said make a Dc2tog(http://www.stitchdiva.com/custom.aspx?id=131).
So I made a ch(18) to make a ruffle on this.
but after made a Dc2tog, it said "attach yarn to right-hand edge of project".
I don't understand the meaning of this, do I need to attached on diaper cover? Not continue to make a edge on this ch(18)?
2) After 1), I can continue to the Row 1 to Row 5.
"Row 1"
Ch4 (counts as 1 dc, ch 1) *dc2tog over next 2 sts or chs, ch 1 : rep from * end 1 dc in last st or ch. Turn.
So first of all, I can't understand if I need to just make ch 4 to get started Row 1 or I can continue from 1)'s 18 ch to make Row 1.(continued from Dc2tog on 18ch.) ??
"Row 2"
Ch3 (counts as 1 hdc, ch 1), Dc2tog in first ch-1sp, ch1, *dc2tog in next dc2tog, ch 1, dc2tog in next ch-1 sp...(to be continued)
I can't understand the "*Dc2tog in next Dc2tog".
I know how to make Dc2Tog but I don't know how to make a stitch Dc2tog "in next Dc2tog" as this book mentioned.
I can not imagine how to make ruffle with this pattern, so make me hard to continued.
If you have the same book with me or experienced to make this kind of edge, please advice.
Thanks in advance!
