Question
MarylandLaurie
Hi, I'm trying to make a hat from a pattern and I'm stuck not because I can't do the stitches, but because my stitch count is very different from what the pattern says it should be. In round 2 there were 12 "V stitches" made meaning 24 double crochets. Everything was fine. Then in round 3 the pattern says, " * V st (2 dc) in next V st, V st in next space between V sts, V st in next V st, repeat from * around - 36 dc or 18 V sts. "
I've done this round, got the wrong count, pulled it out, did it again slowly, and no matter what I get 48 dcs (24 V sts). I even drew it out on paper. What am I doing wrong to get so many fewer stitches? I marked the beginning of the round, so I know where I started. Am I not understanding what the pattern means? Thank you all for any help! Take care!
