I am new to crochet so I appreciate you sharing this pattern! Can't wait to make one! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWorking on this hat right now! :) One question though-- On rounds 12 & 13, are you repeating the (2 hdc, 1 hdc) pattern around the entire row, same as row 11? Or is it one 2hdc then 1 hdc for the next 5 stitches? Sorry, it's just not clear to me. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I think I get it! LOL! After typing it out then going back to reading it, I think it makes sense now. If it was a picture, VIIIIIIVIIIIIIVIIIIII. Got it!
