love your patterns
I am working on the Sunny Day pattern. I got to the 2nd row w/ no problem. But where I’m confused is dc in next stitch and fpdc in next post seems like it would add up to 14 stitches not 21. What am I doing wrong? I understand it has to increase to get bigger but not sure where the extra 7 stitches go?
I am wondering the same thing. I see no instructions on where the additional 7 stitches come from.
