Question
When it says slip st in next 2 sc does it mean that the 2 sc should be slipped together or do they want you to slip stitch in each of the next 2 sc

Answer
Hi Melanie! Your directions should say to sl st in EACH of the next two sc. Your right, the directions aren't clear, but that's the way a lot of instructions are written, so next time you run into to that, you'll know.

Good Luck on your project!

Expertise

I consider myself an expert in the field of hand crochet. I have been crocheting for 45 years. I can answer most question on the differnt stitches, as well as the methods used to create speciality items. The art of crochet, after 2 decades of being out of fashion, is enjoying a modest come back. I want to help those newcomers looking for a little/lot of help to get started. Once they are comfortable with the process, they can relax & begin to create the heirlooms of tomorrow.

Experience


Experience in the art of crochet is
40 + years crocheting for myself, my family & occasionally doing commissioned work.

Education/Credentials
Bachelors degree in Social Science.
