Absolutely beautiful, but unfortunately round 1 makes a absolutely no sense, and cannot work out or continue.
Such a shame 🙁
Have a try,you can do it!
Hi 👋
I watched the video and figured it out. It’s not actually rounds. You just work out the stitches sequence.
So after 45 ch, skip to 3rd ch from hook, do 2dc in next 2, (DC, 2ch picot) in next 13, (DC, 3ch picot) in next 13, (DC, 4 ch picot) in next 13, (DC, 5 ch picot) in next 13, 2DC in next, HDC in next, ch 1 and cut off long tail.
Thanks for your reminder. Now we have renew the pattern and it’s more clear.
The flowers are pretty but the instructions are not accurate or clear. For the lavender, the rounds are not rows rather 1 row. This should be made more clear.
The stems are also poorly written and not clear.
Thanks for your reminder. We have renew the pattern and now it’s more clear and matches the video. About stem, just wrap it with yarn.
Thanks for actually teaching and sharing, you are great, thanks to you my bedroom is prettier .. have a great 2024 .. ♡ ..
