hello & pattern assistance.

[FrancesCalledFig]

hi, I’m Kim. new here. 

I found a pattern online (see below) and I can’t work it out to get to 16 stitches.

I can figure 10 or maybe 12… 

I’ve also attached a photo of a model of my stitches using “x” to represent 1 sc.

I’d appreciate help getting started. 

 

PATTERN: 

Chain 7 ch stitches. Crochet 2 sc (increase) in the second ch from hook and then 1 sc in each of the following 4 ch stitches. Crochet 4 sc (2 increases) in the last ch stitch, which will allow you to turn and work on the other side of the foundation chain. Crochet 1 sc in each of the following 4 ch stitches and, finally, 2 sc (increase) in the last ch stitch. Total stitches: 16
