  1. Simple and elegant. 8) Great for Ren Faires. Easy enough for a beginner to crochet, but it will look like the crocheter is an accomplished pro. ;)

    1. Hi, this will be my second item to crochet (been knitting for 4 yrs) and I have some DK cotton yarn. Do you have any tips for adjusting the pattern to use the DK weight?
      Thank you!

  8. Forgive me, but, I'm somewhat confused with this particular step:

    ch 1, dc between dc and ch3. Repeat this until desired width.

    I don't understand this step.
    I'm not sure where I am supposed to do this. Thanks for your help.

    2. Yeah, that step is completely wrong. You would think she would have noticed it when asked. The ch 3 is at the other end of the row, so this is incorrect.

    3. I did a ch 4 in the beginning (counts as DC and ch 1) then I continued [DC (in each DC), Ch 1] across to the end. I hope this helped!

  15. Just keep repeating second row. It works then.

  16. the first word in this pattern name is a slur for Roma people so if you could change it that would be great

  18. It's a beautiful piece,BUT I 💬 nk it needs to be rewritten there's a lot of confusion on the chaining and the last row says between the chain threes there's no chain threes or does it mean to chain three? Confused as all get out

  19. You should change the name so you don't have a slur in it
