Question
Kipepeo
I am new here and just introduced myself in that thread. I'm trying to follow an afghan pattern and I'm having trouble at row ends. I've started this project 3 times and ripped it out a couple. After chain row and foundation of double crochet it's then a row of shell stitches. Here's what it says at the end of the first shell row after the repeating section: "*repeating shells* to last 4 sts, Shell in next dc, dc in last st, turn. (34 shells)"
Trouble is after repeating there are already 34 shells, so if I shell in next dc there would be 35. One of my attempts I did this and the edge is just off not to mention with 2 shells right next to each other it's crowded.
Then the next row starts off "Ch 1, sc in same dc, working around previous row, LDC in next dc of foundation row". I'm not sure what is the "same dc" and which dc is the next one in the foundation row.
I came here because I'm hopeful you all will help me so I can actually do this project!
Thank you!
