  1. The count on your rounds using color B seem to be four stitches short or I am just not understanding the pattern.

    Example Round 9: the first group of stitches add up to using 9 stitches (2 sc – 2 hdc – 2 dc – 3 tr = 9 stitches used). The repeat stitches (2 dc – 2 hdc- 3 sc – 2 hdc – 2 dc – 3 tr = 14 stitches) can only be used four times and each repeat adds up to 14 stitches x 4 = 56 stitches used.

    9 + 56 + ending 1 sc = 66 stitches but there should be 70 stitches which is four stitches short.

    Please help, because I love the look of this pattern and am already through row 8. Thank you.

    1. Hi! Continue the repeat until you reach the end (so you will have an unfinished repeat). In round 9 it states that you will end with 1 sc

      1. Hi! You will not complete a full repeat in the last repeat. Just continue around until you get back to the beginning. 🙂

  2. Thanks. I saw what wrote in previous comments. I’m thrilled this one came out so well. Thank you for sharing your patterns. I’ve made all 3 and will start in the 4th on Sunday
