I am all caught up now:)) a couple of things:) I was not sure if you were counting the ch 3 as the first DC so I DC in the first DC and then at the end of the row nothing in the top of the ch fr last row. is this right? and I started off with 205 DC counting the ch 3. was this right?
ReplyDeletesure wish you had another background besides black LOL
I will be back tomorrow:)
hugs,
sissie
Yes, the ch 3 does count as a dc, sorry. LOL I love the black background, but I guess I might consider changing it. Is it hard to see?
ReplyDeleteso I need to skip the first DC since the ch 3 counts as the first?
ReplyDeleteyes it is a little hard to see but I can manage:)
hugs.
sissie
Sissie, Yes, Cyndi is truly the Punk Rockin' Chick, cuz she just LOVES black! LOL
ReplyDeleteTry highlighting the text... it will give you a white background with a blue font.
OK I'm on board. Gonna start my scarf today and get caught up. I love mystery CAl. Atleast I know it's a scarf. LOL. Thanks for hosting this.

Sissie, sorry I forgot to get back to you.. thought I had. The ch 3 does count as the first dc, so you wouldn't dc in the first one or you would be increasing.. and at the end of each row you do dc in the top of the ch 3. :)
