    I think where it said one double crochet over two double crochet, it means to decrease by crocheting the two stitches together.

    • @gabriellaglass6157
      @gabriellaglass6157 3 місяці тому +5

      That’s what I was thinking as well after seeing the next few round add less after the first 18 singles

      Yes definitely a decrease!

    • @firegodessreiko

      Exactly this. Sounds like an Invisible Decrease to me! And then the stitch count appears to be going down after. It pays to have started with amigurumi, I guess!

  • @karmagal78

    Instead of masking tape, should use painters tape. It lifts easier because it’s made to lift off instead of sticking to.

    • @gangoolie68
      @gangoolie68 3 місяці тому +3

      Or scotch magic tape. It looks invisible you can write or use a sharpie on it and it definitely lifts up.

    • @firegodessreiko
      @firegodessreiko 13 днів тому

      They also make highlighter tape that works quite well. Works even better if you slip your pattern into a plastic sleeve first. Then no masking tape, painters tape OR highlighter tape will lift the ink off of your patterns.

    I wouldve added 2 perhaps 3 white rounds on heel side to fix my mistake first and then start the leg bit. When they said 16 more rows you should've done 16 more. And at reducing rows I think you skipped 1 plain row and you could've perhaps gone up to high when grabbing the sides on top of foot

    Corinna, I have many steel, crochet hooks which belonged to my grandmother. Most are “Boye”, some I cannot identify except for the size. However, there are 4 labeled, “Milward”, Made in England, two size 9, one 8 and one 7. Also, have 1 labeled “Shamrock”, size 5 with a sleeve that fits over the hook and another “Hero”, made in England, size 9. Are you or anyone else interested in having these? They will end up in a landfill someday otherwise.

    If the bone hook is bent, you might be able to heat it up and rebend it correctly. I think it would be steam to make it pliable and then you just have to hold it in position. A heat gun should also work and probably a hair dryer.

    It took me forever to realize that they were decreasing stitches by crochet 2 together with that wording in another pattern.
    Also, bone and ivory needles and hooks can dry out and crack. sometimes they can be re-surfaced with a very fine grit sandpaper and a bit of wax (like CarboWax), but cracks will continue to form if the relative humidity is below about 40%.

Thank you so much for figgering it out. I gues the boarder should go on both sides of the middle (going down and up) so you have the look of a real boot.

As you read it you got confused and not to toot my own horn here but I figured it was a decrease as soon as the pattern split 18 consecutive with 1 over 2 and then 9 consecutive. I had a whole argument with you for like five minutes until you figured it out lol

I've read in the comments about the decrease issue, but I think the commenters might be wrong. Later in the pattern it says "without increasing or decreasing" so the pattern writer obviously knew the term and would have said so, don't you think? Love & hugs, always.
