Question
LeapyearCynthia
I almost hate to even ask this, but it seems the simple things are the ones I can't wrap my mind around.
I am working on a very simple nothing-but-DC throw. Basically, I start with a chain of X (X being desired width- I am doing 160 chains). Anyway, as I am working up my rows, I am gaining stitches with each row. I was thinking that if I counted the TC as a stitch that would solve the problem and my count would remain even. - Ha! Maybe because I am working into it at the end of the row, or not skipping a stitch at the beginning if the row is what is throwing me?
I was over 2/3 done with this one and discovered that I had gained almost 30 stitches. Ripped the whole thing apart and am trying again. So frustrated that something that should be so stinkin' easy is twisting me up. (Photo us from the original workup).
Thanks y'all for any advice and input you can offer!!!! 🧡🧡
