It's great here today. The weather is a bit cooler and we actually turned off the a/c and opened the windows and doors. The garden didn't do too well this year because of the heat. DH watered the heck out of it but it still seemed to "cook" most of the garden. I'm still getting some tomatoes but that's about all.
I've been delaying starting my wearable project. For one thing, I didn't realize how much yarn that a sweater took. I then started looking at vests and that's where I'm at now. I'll figure something out very soon.
Take care y'all...

Hi Sharon - your scarf is really cute. I'm sure you will be getting lots of compliments when you wear it. :)
ReplyDeleteHey Sharon! In general I think a lot of crochet pattern designers assume that it's understood. The ch2 or ch3 at the beginning of the row counts as the first stitch unless specified otherwise. The ch1 when doing a sc does not.
ReplyDeleteA great solution I've seen to that bump you (we) always get at the beginning of a row of dc is to ch1 instead of 3 and do your first stitch in the first stitch instead of the second.
The scarf came out great!
Thanks Laurie. Hopefully some of the beautiful patterns out there written by bloggers follow that rule.
DeleteThanks Debi. I think I'm going to give this to my friend's granddaughter. Might be a tad bit too youngish for me.;)
