Suggestionfor another project
I saw a 1950s black summer sweater with filet crochet. All over the sweater, In a non uniformed patter, there were bright vivarant Colours granny squares different shapes and sizes. The squares were in triangles, circles, etc. The Sweater was made with #3 thread. It was timeless.
It could make a nice summer throw.
The instructions are correct, when working post stitches sometimes other stitches get lost in the mix. I would check your posts and see if you are accidentally skipping/missing a stitch there.
I’m having a problem with Square 40. Do the chain 2’s at the beginning of the rows count as the first hdc? I see in the picture that there are 11 fpdc ridges. Is this correct? It doesn’t come out for me. What am I doing wrong?????
