You say that you stop doing good on Row 4. Deborah, are you a new crocheter? The first 23 rows are worked in treble stitches. To make a treble stitch, wrap the yarn around the hook twice, insert hook into the corresponding chain or stitch and pull up a loop, you have 4 loops on hook, yarn over and through two loops, yarn over, and through last 2 loops. <br />Craftybegoniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873176762991601294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712128535546764417.post-28955813952228685772016-10-18T11:09:56.335-07:002016-10-18T11:09:56.335-07:00I love this site!

Your patterns are easy to follow and I've made a few of these that I now have for sale at my Etsy site (https://www.etsy.com/listing/478145193/chunky-cowl-snood-textured-scarf-loop?ref=shop_home_active_16) and I gave you credit for the pattern and a link back to your blog.<br /><br />My grandma passed away last month and when she was still in the hospital I made some of these to pass the hours in I.C.U. as it was easy to do without much thinking.

I'm 76 yrs. old and taught myself to crochet when I was 8. I would crochet all day if I could, but I've had 13 surgeries on my hands so I crochet for a while, stop, and start again. Your patters are all so lovely and the instructions very easy to read. Thank you so very much for sharing your patterns with us.

You are the first person who has had problems with the amount of yarn. Perhaps your crocheting tension is different than mine and you require more yarn. If you use a Super Saver skein, I promise you, you will not need more than one!Craftybegoniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873176762991601294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712128535546764417.post-61459253953780237702016-08-31T23:34:10.688-07:002016-08-31T23:34:10.688-07:00Lovely cowl.

However (and I AM pretty inexperienced) I tried to make it twice now - once with leftover yarn from another project and again with a ball of Lily's Sugar and Cream yarn - and both times I have run out of yarn before the project is complete. Not that big a deal - I will just pick up some more when I have the chance and finish both of them, but I thought I would mention it, because the "half skein" can be confusing for inexperienced folks like me who haven't mastered the "how much yarn does this really take" calculation end of things. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712128535546764417.post-68191308192961433162016-06-06T02:18:40.379-07:002016-06-06T02:18:40.379-07:00Glad to hear that +RecycleCindy.

I ended up using 3.6 ounces of yarn and did a few extra rows on the decorative ends to make it a bit longer. On second side at end of row 1, I believe should be only Ch 1, turn; rather than Ch 4.

For the original, I used less than a full skein of worsted weight Red Heart Super Saver in the color indicated. Maybe you can get two scarves from one skein, because I had quite a lot of yarn left when I finished.

First of all, this is a hefty pattern for a beginner. It is relatively easy but you are wanting to make changes to it which are not calculated in the pattern and i cannot be sure what you are going to end up with. I am sorry, but I cannot tell you the stitch count if you add a row that is not called for in the pattern. Why would you want to do that? I do not see the reason for it. It is absolutely unnecessary.Craftybegoniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01873176762991601294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712128535546764417.post-13615393581551647652016-03-23T08:49:19.178-07:002016-03-23T08:49:19.178-07:00Hello - I am a beginner and would like to add a ro...Hello - I am a beginner and would like to add a row of single crochet after the foundation chain.

It's not bad, it's just that the little bumps are not that visible, I'm thinking I may have been doing some other stitch instead of the triple one, I'm a beginner crocheter, so maybe I did do some other stitch.

You do NOT count the ch 3 as a stitch, that will give you the count, just ignore the turning ch, it is simply a directional sign, like when you turn the corner while driving. In this pattern, it doesn't count as a stitch, it is simply a means to get to the next row.
