Question
akrre
Hi there! I'm making a sweater based on this pattern (http://www.fiorelila.com/valentina-top-sweater/). I've gotten all the way to the lace sleeves and for the LIFE of me can't get past round 28. I've pasted the pattern below here. Row 27 works out fine (total of 40 stitches). However when I work round 28 I get very confused. I'm not sure if when it says to make 3 dc tog + 2 ch in the next 5 sts if it means three dc2tog (+2ch for each) or is it one dc3tog (+2ch for each). Or it could mean anything, I just can't figure it out. If I do the one dc3tog plus the 2 ch it covers the 5 stitches but I can't make the count work. It's supposed to be a bell sleeve but that decreases the stitches almost in half. Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks,
Erika
Round 27 : 1 ch (doesn’t count as a st) 3 sc in the first 3 sts, skip 2, 5 dc in the same st, *skip 2 sts, 5 sc, skip 2 sts, 5 dc in the same st*, repeat from *to* twice, skip 2 sts, 2 sc, sl st in the first sc.
Round 28 : 1 ch (doesn’t count as a st) , 1 sc, 2 ch, skip 2 sts, (in each dc from the row bellow) make 3 dc tog + 2 ch in the next 5 sts, skip 2 sts, *1 sc, 2 ch, skip 2 sts, (in each dc from the row bellow) make 3 dc tog + 2 ch in the next 5 sts, skip 2 sts*, repeat from *to* twice. Close the round with a sl st in the first sc.
