Hi Crafty.

Could you clarify/review Row 2? I'm coming up short and wonder if there is a missing "skip 4 dc" after "...ch 4, skip 4 dc, 1 sc in next dc, ch 4..."

Hi Kat! When I make something, I write it down as I make it. I do not remember those stitches you mention in the pattern, but if it won't turn out for you without them, ADD THEM! By all means! I don't see my patterns as something concrete, set and static, I see them as a guideline. Do what you need to do to get the finished result.

what is the 1 d?

Thanks for sharing!

Hi Arla, I am in the process of looking over the site but it will take me some time to review it all. I did check this scarf's line 11 and 1d was a simple repetition that did not belong there. i delete it. Hope this helps.
