Question
CraftyCasey
Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and was hoping someone could help me understand part of this pattern. It's a vintage pattern of a jacket that my cousin gave me and I'm having trouble understanding how to crochet the hood. The part of the pattern I'm struggling with says "Starting at center back, ch 41 to measure 13 1/2 inches. Row 1: hdc in 3rd ch from hook, hdc in next 37 ch, 2 hdc in last ch; working along opposite side of starting chain, skip last ch used, hdc in next 38 ch-78 hdc. DO NOT COUNT TURNING CHAIN AS 1 HDC. Ch 2, turn. Row 2-right side: Hdc in each st across. Ch 2, turn. Repeat 2nd row until there are 11 rows in all. Break off and fasten. With right side of hood at outside and end of starting chain at center back of neck, sew straight edge of hood to neck edge". This all sounds really confusing to me, especially the part where I have to work along the opposite side of the starting chain.. any help would be great. Thanks! Sorry for the long post!
