Thank you for replying. NOw that you have pointed it out it makes sense. Thank you very much.

 

the marker you placed for center of shoulder is the dividing point for the front and back of the garment.

so when you reach the center of shoulder marker on row 20 the rest of row 20 is for the back.

they're just saying one side of the marker is the back and one side is the front.

Hi there I'm new to forum and also need help with this pattern. I have also never done anything like this and feel the pattern is not explained properly ( or that's the way it seems to me) I am stuck on Row 20: Ch 3 (count as dc), dc in next st, *skip next 3 sts,

tr in next st, dc in each skipped st working behind tr just

made; repeat from * to marker for Front, [skip next st, dc in

next 3 sts, working in front of 3 dc just made, tr in skipped

st] to last 2 sts, dc in 2 sts for Back, turn.

I have understood and worked the Ch 3, (count as dc), dc in next st, *skip next 3 sts,

tr in next st, dc in each skipped st working behind tr just

made;' there is no mention of a front marker only a marker for the shoulder in row 20 i don't understand what they mean by * to marker for Front, [skip next st, dc in

next 3 sts, working in front of 3 dc just made, tr in skipped

st] to last 2 sts, dc in 2 sts for Back, turn.across I am now at the marker for the shoulder which was mentioned in row 20. I took a picture but don't know how to paste it on to my message. Please someone help, I don't want to give up now.

 

Thank you

Tumay

Sorry lol Just got phones back

Guess where I Live

 

SUNSET TEXAS!

 

YEP fires all around

[Debbi-a1]

Glad you got it!

yes I think it might have been a little tight. I only had a large hook with me.

I love the 2 color look for both the instruction help and just the look in general. That might be cute for some othe pattern... purse maybe... don't need one, but super cute... scarf...

[cindylou4516]

I found batteries that work and its a little too late, but here is a picture of your stitch

http://www.flickr.com/photos/cindylou4516/sets/72157616564505946/. I hope you can see it ok I am not really sure how to work this camera to get good pictures yet.

[cindylou4516]

You need to loosen it up a little so it doesnt bunch up. Otherwise you have it.

[cindylou4516]

Yes I you have it but your second group the tr looks like its a little to tight its kinda bunching.

[Debbi-a1]

I am at work, but everyone has just about left, so I sneaked in some crochet for you

 

the pink cord is my mp3 player cord, but I put it there to show the trc in front of the 3 dc.

 

and one with 2 of them done in a row

[magiccrochetfan]

actually i think you are on the right track, except like Cindy said, the treble should be in front of the 3 dc sts. It is hard at first to get the hook into position to work in back, but with practice it gets easier.

[magiccrochetfan]

Hi Renee, don't give up:hook Just because this pattern is giving you trouble, that doesn't mean you can't make clothes. Personally i don't like most of the patterns on the Coats website because the pictures are so tiny, you can't tell much about how things are supposed to look:(

 

here are a couple more references on the back cross stitch http://www.nexstitch.com/v_back_cross_stitch.html

[cindylou4516]

I was wrong with my \ it should go this way /

[cindylou4516]

it look backwards your tr should be in the front not the back

[RenJac1301]

I dont think I can do clothes might be a mistake for me to of tried:(

 

That stitch is for the ,Ara Toggle Wrap

[RenJac1301]

OK I tried it again, after doing this i turned over. looks like a half X Is that right

 

the stitch above my fingernail

 

[cindylou4516]

I am hunting for batteries now LOL

[cindylou4516]

you need to go behind the tr so the long stitch is over your dc's you are not making an X just a \

[RenJac1301]

Ok

[cindylou4516]

boy I wish I had batteries because i did a sample for you

[cindylou4516]

You are supposed to dc in the 3 skipped stitches and it will look like a half X thats what your first post says.

[RenJac1301]

Ok I grabbed a different ball of yarn lol I didnt want to goof up what I was working on lol

 

Looks Like an X lol. Is this right?Its not is it

[cindylou4516]

Unfortunatly I dont have batteries for my camera. But I will try and explain it to you. after you tr in the 4th stitch YO go back to the first skipped stitch and dc in it then repeat in the next 2 st now your tr should be in front of your dc's and it will look like half an X. I wish I could show you pictures. Once you do it you will go OHHHHHHHH that was so simple.

[RenJac1301]

Ok Debb lol Ill give it a try lol thanks

[Debbi-a1]

Ok so the stitch says Ch 3 ,dc in next*Skip next 3 stitches,tr in next stitch,DC in each SKIPPED Stitch WORKING behind tr just made

 

You just go back to the stitch you skipped next to the one you worked the tr in and work the dc.

 

Here's one with dc and only one missed stitch (called a cross stitch), your's is just skipping more stitches.
