Flamenco Wrap

[Guest SDAMOT]

Hi all!

I crocheted this piece a WHILE ago but just now got my butt in gear and wrote the pattern. Actually, it's more of a formula than a pattern since you can really use any yarn at any gauge, though I recommend something with some drape and that is fairly light.

Here's a picture

 

You can get the pattern/formula here:

That's really pretty! It looks like it can be used as a shawl too. Thanks for sharing the pattern with us.

Oh, you could aboslutely wear it as a shawl. It's actually on display at the LYS from which I got the yarn and they have it up as a shawl.

 

It's actually quite easy to make, as well. I've done another piece just like it, only double and with a different border and wear it as a poncho. !

I've been wanting to do this pattern for a long time! I finally got some yarn for it yesterday, printed out the pattern, and sat down to play.

 

Alas, I got completely confused by the instructions.

 

The pattern says:

"With crochet hook and yarn, make a chain a little longer than desired final length. Make sure the total number of stitches is a multiple of 4+1

Turn

 

Row 1: *Ch 5, sc in 4th ch from hook* across

Turn"

 

I understand about the first part (making the chain), it's just the Row 1 instructions. If I follow those as I think I should, I never actually put any stitches into the original chain. From looking at some other patterns, and the pictures, should it be "*Ch 5, sc in 4th ch from starting place* across" (since you're supposed to make loops?)

 

Any advice is appreciated!
