Question
Florencepm
Hi, I’m a beginner in crochet and I’m having difficulties understanding the firsts steps of a balaclava pattern (https://hobbii.com/esmeralda-balaclava).
it’s supposed to make a hood shape, but I don’t get how to do it. Does somebody understand ? :)
here are the steps:
Chain 20 (25) 30.
Rows 1-10: *Start with a ch 2 and work 1 dc in ns. 1 dc in each st* x10.
Start with a ch 2 in the first st on the first row on the square. 1 dc in each st along 3 of the sides around the square. (On sides 1 and 3 where the dc are turned sideways, insert the hook in between the dc itself. Do this twice per dc) Change direction when you have worked the last side. *
Repeat from * to * for 20 rows.
Ch 2 to start row 21. 1 dc. *2 dc in 1 st*2. 1 dc in each st until you have 3 sts left. *2 dc in 1 st*3. Chain 18 (20) 22 to finish and attach to the opposite side with a sl st.
