Doilies With a Twist Pattern Error

[The Shrone]

I found a possible error in the instructions for the Tala doily in Patricia Kristoffersen's Doilies With a Twist pattern book. My interpretation of the Decrease stitch as written in the stitch guide would come out looking like the image on the right of the above photo. However, the stitch that is shown in the pattern book example doesn't match up. What matches up is the stitch I've done on the left, which is to go through both loops and work the treble crochet as normal.

Wow, that's a significant difference. I don't like the look of how the pattern is written. There's still a difference between yours and the pattern picture, but it looks fine. You could email Trish and ask her about it. She always answers and is super nice.
