I am trying to understand your Pattern for the puff beanie and I am lost.
Rd 3-10 is 56 stitches then Rd 11 is sc 48 stitches only. What do I do with the 8 stitches after slip stitch?
I will appreciate your input.
Thanks a lot!

Hi, this is the start of decreasing. After row 10, you sc 48 sts evenly around (decreases by 8 from row 10), then decrease in each row after that.
