Beautiful! This will be a stocking stuffer.
I’m a novice. I’m having difficulty understanding your pattern . Do you have a chart or photo tutorial? I love the look of this pattern, by the way. Thanks for your help. Oval Lee
I don’t understand the decrease either!
Hi Roberta, the decreases are in the Special Stitches section.
Decrease (dec): Holding back last loop on each stitch on hook, tr in next stitch, [skip next ch, tr in next stitch] twice, yo, pull through all loops on hook.
Triple Crochet Decrease (tr dec): Holding back last loop of each stitch, tr in each of the stitches as indicated, yo, pull through all loops on hook.
Hope this helps!
