I got to row three and when it says onwards until only two loops remain has me lost. When do I get narrower by decreasing. I am used to following patterns row by row.

I think I started mine with a lot more chains and found it too big, so I deducted chains. I'll edit it now from 247 to 253, to get 62 loops at row 1.<br />Though you may still add or deduct on the starting chain in multiples of 4, to get the desired length for the top of the shawl.<br />Thanks again!Mimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18083410586195970499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12987692.post-27086437534416347912011-03-10T19:24:06.651-08:002011-03-10T19:24:06.651-08:00I'm so excited to make this!

You say to ch 5, sk 3, and sc in next ch. And by the end I should have 4 extra stitches. I only had 2. =/ I even went back and recounted my chains and what not but nothing seemed off (accept for the only 2 remaining stitches and I had 61 loops instead of 62). Not really sure what the problem is. Lol. Should I just add 2 chains onto the initial 247 chains?LaraIsWritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05070119760457177551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12987692.post-37656432360507732252011-01-10T22:53:47.733-08:002011-01-10T22:53:47.733-08:00I'm thinking of giving this a go...i'm a n...I'm thinking of giving this a go...i'm a newbie at crocheting so I hope I can make it!!earthlyjewelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01673110377604972050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12987692.post-62486081409613736522010-04-07T10:19:01.709-07:002010-04-07T10:19:01.709-07:00I love how you blended the colors.
