I'm not making the duster but wow it's pretty. What are you having trouble with? The funky wording? They didn't make that easy to read did they?:)

Hi

YESSSSSSSSS

it looks so simple,I got to row nine where it says to do the belt increase

but all I get out of that row is lumps....lol

no increase....

I also posted to stitchguide forum and i had a reply

the lady said she tried and got the same"lump" I did

she thought maybe a typo or something

I hope someone figures it out....its sooooo pretty

The little pic they show doesn't show the pretty pineapples at the bottom but you can see the belt.

 

The row reads:

sl st in each of first 7 sts (not counted as sts),

ch 1,

sc in same st as last sl st,

sc in each of next 6 [6,6,8] sc,

[belt inc, sc in each of next 8 [9,11,12] sc] twice,

turn. (35 [37,41,45] sts)

 

That does seem like a whole lot of sc's jammed together in that one spot.

 

How did it work out for you in Row 1? There they call it a decrease but they say to sc in the next 8 twice for that too.

ok

well I got as far as the belt increase row

sc for 8 stitches

then I tried to do the belt increase stitch in (special stitches)

but I just got a raised bump

it reads

 

ch1[sc in 8,9,11,12]sc,

belt increase...twice

so I thought by the brackets you wold do the first 8 sc or what size ,then belt increase.

then 8... then belt increase again...then continue

 

this is the belt increase

working in 2sts; sc in first st,sc in 2nd st, [TURN,sc in same st as last sc made,sc in next st] twice

all I get is a raised bump
