butterfly wing shawl trouble

[karen007]

I can't seem to get the row three repeat correct.

 

 

Row 3 & beyond

Ch 4, DC into first DC, SC into next DC

Shell (DC-ch1-DC-ch1-DC) into next Sc, SC into middle DC of shell from previous row

Repeat until you get to the ch 2 space at bottom point

*Shell-ch2-Shell* in ch 2 space

SC into middle DC of shell from previous row, shell in next sc

Repeat until you get to the half shell at the top point.

SC in last DC

Dc-ch1-DC in 3rd ch of turning ch.

Turn

 

I do the repeat with the chain 4 and when I get back to the chain 4 on the next round I seem to have to stitch over it leaving it just kinda sticking out like a missed stitch. What am I doing wrong? I don't know why I can't catch on everyone else from the treads seemed to breeze right through this pattern.

Is this free pattern, or one from a book? If it's free could you give us a link?

[karen007]

I don't know how to post the link. It's under original patterns by Holly M. It is her pattern, I read through all the posts and no one seemed to have any trouble with the repeat except me.

Just because no one's posted they had trouble doesn't mean no one did.

 

I'll give it a try when I have some time.
