(This is from the pattern posted here) Sweetiemom, I'm working on this dress and I was wondering, is the bolded part a typo? At first I thought it was a typo and that I was supposed to repeat row 15, but then I realized if I do that, the skirt seems like it will be EXTREMELY full, so I thought I should ask. If I am supposed to repeat row 13, do I just keep going around instead of turning? And in that case, do I dc in the middle of the ch3 that connects the two sides? (Sorry for all the questions, I'm making two of these and I want to make sure I do it right )
OOPS! It should be repeat row 15. Sorry about that. After the skirt is joined you just work in rounds without turning. At the joining, I just slip st in the top of the ch 3 at the beginning of the row. Hope that helps. I did fix the typo in the pattern.
Hmmmm...another question about the pattern...Is it possible that it's actually for Lati Yellow? I was making it for LittleFee, and I knew it looked a little small, but assumed it would stretch....but here it is on my B&G Leile (has the same measurements as Lati Yellow). It fits her perfectly o_o and is adorable, though not finished....I'd still like to make two of them for the LTFs I have on the way, though.... Edit: Here's a link to the original pattern, just for reference > http://www.denofangels.com/forums/s...het-patterns&p=4113409&viewfull=1#post4113409
No, it's not for a Lati yellow-it's shown and fitted on my LF Ante. Do you crochet tightly? I think maybe you need to use a bigger hook if you do.
