    When you do a slip stitch each round, do you go into that at the end of each round before you end off with another slip stitch? I’m confused. Is it considered 18th stitch when you counted for the second round ?

    When you start crotcheing downwards, do you still do a slip stitch at the end of each round?

    Yes! You always connect the round with a slip stich and then chain three to do the first double crochet of the next round

  • @kxthe

    @kxthe

    2 жыл бұрын

    after you increased you are gonna do as many rounds of just double crochets until you´ve reached the point where your eye slit is gonna be. For me that were 7 rounds. So 5 rounds of increasing and then 7 rounds of normal double crochets in each stich. So I had a total of 12 rounds at that point.

    In the beginning, you did the first row of one double crochet and one increase. After that you said to keep increasing, but is it the same one double and one increase or is it all increases until it fits?

    After the first round of increases (which was 1 double crochet, one increase) the next round will be (1 double crochet in the next 2 stitches and then a increase) and the third round will be (1 double crochet in 3 stitches and then a increase) and you continue like that.

    I think you are doing too many increases, you should increase 12 per round. so you should adjust the increases with each round, the 1. round every other stitch, the second round every third stitch, the fourth round every fourth stitch, the fifth round every fifth stitch

    Once you get to the desired length of the crown place stitch markers were you want your eye slits to be and then connect the two ends of the round by single crocheting and then slip stitching it together. Then continue with the double crochet patter as normal
