AboutMarla Expertise I have crocheted many doilies, I enjoy working with crochet thread. I have crocheted numerous afghans. But I have little to no experience in hairpin lace, or the afghan stitch. If you have a question pertaining to a pattern in a magazine, book or leaflet, please include the name and # of it, and the page or pattern #. There is a slight possibility I may have that pattern, and can refer to it. Although I have crocheted sweaters and slippers,I don't feel I have done enough of them to really give good advice as to assembling the pieces, but can give advice on the type of stitches.
Experience I have been a crocheter for almost 30 years.
Question When I make the leaf, I use a foundation cord. How do you crochet the points of the leaf using the foundation cord?
Answer Hi Donna!
Thanks for asking! I am sorry for taking so long to answer. Irish crochet is beautiful. I looked in my book of Irish Crochet, so I can give you a better answer. When you get to the point, you ch, turn, and crochet over both the foundation cord and the last row, usually in the back loop of the sc of that row. I hope this is what you needed. If you need anything else, please let me know!
