    Regarding the two following instruction stitch notes; to me, they seems to be either mislabeled or misstated.

    “Foundation single crochet (fsc)
    Ch 2, yo, insert hook into first ch, yo, pull up lp, yo, pull through 1 lp on hook, yo, pull through 3 lps on hook, *insert hook under 2 lps of the fhdc just made, yo, pull up a lp, yo, pull through 1 lp, yo and pull through 3 lps on hook; rep from * for indicated number of foundation sts.

    Foundation double crochet (fdc)
    Ch 2, yo, insert hook into first ch, yo, pull up lp, pull through first lp on hook, yo, pull through 2 lps on hook.” **Is this a true Foundation DC st or a foundation DC row?

  • Is it possible to name the weight of the yarn your using? We all don’t have access to the yarns your using nor do some of us want to use wool.

      Hello! Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Many of our patterns have been updated to include yarn weight and this one just hadn’t been updated yet. It is now updated. Thank you for your patience! – Nicola, Editor

    Instructions say to block to dimensions for the pieces but no schematic to tell us those dimensions
