You’re done! Enjoy!
I’m not understanding where you’re increasing your stitches in this pattern. Can you please clarify for me? Thank you!
The increase happens between the fpdc’s starting in row 7. You dc 2 sts between the fpdc then on the next row 3 dc’s in-between the fpdc and so fourth. It will grow your hat each row depending on what size your making. Hope this helps!
I understand the increases, but do not follow rows 9-17; Please explain. Thank you
This is where the increasing rows stops and you continue the pattern in the same way, just without any additional increases. Hope this makes sense!
