  8. This is beautiful! I can't wait to try it out. What thread did you use? I've never seen this thread before. I love the colors and since I don't see where you changed colors in the pattern like your other patterns, this thread must be multicolored . . . LOL

  12. I'm confused on row 12. Was I suppose to space between throw 11 double shells? I don't want to give up at this point.
    After 2 double crochet in first space 2 DCon then small she'll in next space. But I have 4 dc at this point. Thank you.

  13. I know this is an older post but I'm also very very confused at row 12. A chart or a zoom in of the stitches for that one would help a lot, I tried zooming in on the photo but I'm still not sure I'm doing it right.

    1. I think maybe the repeat asterisk is in the wrong place? Shouldn't it be after the "2 dc in next space" that's at the very end there? It was smooth sailing until row 12 for me, all I can figure is because it's no longer symmetrical, so it gets odd to sort it out.

    2. I'm having the same problem. Did you get an answer or did you do it your way?

  15. Hello :) How big does this measure? Thank-you it is gorgeous :)

  16. On row 12 I think there is a typo. It seems to work if you do the 2dc in the space and not the shell. I think it should read ,........2dc in next 2 dc, 2 dc in next space, 5 chain **, etc. It worked for me eventually.
