Crochet/Pink Perfection

Question
I just started working on Pink Perfection and I had trouble with row 5.  I found in the special stitches instructions for treble cluster (tr cl) Ch 5, (tr, ch 5 cl st) in 5th ch from hook. Try Ch 5, (tr, ch 5 sl st) in 5th ch from hook. I think it is a typo..cl when it should be sl.

Answer
Hey, Shirley! It could be a typo. cl st is obviously cluster stitch, which makes no sense in instructions for making the stitch! I think you'll just have to try your idea, and see if it works, though you can't tell until you start on the next row.
I hope it works for you!

Best Wishes,  Bea

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.
