Rd 3, where does 1st stitch go? I ch 4 (= 1tr), ch 3, skip 1tr. Do I go into 3rd tr with a chain of 7? Rd 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 14, 15 , where do I place 1st stitch after ch 4 (tr)? Also, in bind off for XL, Do I ch 4 at the beginning of rd 15 and 16? Thank you.for all your help!

Dear Mrs Taylor, not sure to really understand your meaning here sorry, start round 3 with 4 chains (= 1st tr), then crochet *3 chains (=1st ch-space) (= a total of 7 ch); then skip next tr, work 1 tr in next tr* and repeat from *-* (= you work in every other tr from round 2 = there are now 12 tr and 12 3-ch-spaces. See crochet info about beg/end of each round. On row 14 size XL, start with 4 chains, then crochet the 34 ch for 1st armhole. Happy crocheting!

I apologize for all the questions. Instructions say chain 4 to begin every rd (counts as tr). However, what do I do for Rd 3? It say 1tr, 3ch, skip 1 tr, etc. If I chain 4 for tr, I'll have 7 chains? What am I supposed to do for Rd 3? Thank you so much.
05.12.2019 - 01:00DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Taylor, on row 3, replace the first tr with 4 ch - as under crochet info and work: 4 chains (= 1st tr), and repeat now from *-* (so that you will have 7 chains, the first 4 are for the first tr and the next 3 are for the chain-space) and finish with 1 sl st in 4th chain from beg of the round. Happy crocheting!

On the rounds where it doesn't say to sl st, do I assume that I should sl st? I'm referring to rounds 5,8, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 & 16. These instructions are very confusing.
02.12.2019 - 20:24DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Taylor, begin every round with 4 ch to replace first tr on the round and finish each round with a sl st in the 4th ch from beg of round - see Crochet Info at the beg of the pattern. Happy crocheting!

Can you please explain the instructions for Round 4 of the Circle? I'm confused
27.11.2019 - 07:40DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Taylor, on round 4 you will work 3 tr in each of the 12 tr from round 3, and work 3 chains between each time you work 3 tr = you will have 36 tr and 36 ch-spaces. Happy crocheting!

I have completed round 8 ending with 144 tr. I am stuck on round 9 as it says you should end up with 48 tr after doing the 1 tr in first tr, *3 ch, skip 2 tr, 1 tr in next tr and repeat*. How do I go from the previuous round's 144 tr to 48 tr on round 9?
26.11.2019 - 22:40DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Doty, on round 9 you will skip trebles to work as follows: 1 tr in first tr, then repeat: (3 ch, skip 2 tr, 1 tr in next tr) so that you work 3 ch + 1 treble over next 3 trebles. Repeat from (to) a total of 48 times = there are now 48 trebles and 48 ch-spaces. Happy crocheting!

Hello, I would like to make this garment in larger sizes (such as 3X or 4X) than are given in the pattern. Do you have a plus-size pattern or instructions for making this pattern in larger sizes? Thank you.

I would like to make this pattern without the sleeves. I\'m a beginner so can you explain to me exactly how to do this? I am making in XL and want it to be a bit longer. How do I do this?
15.07.2019 - 03:40DROPS Design answered:
Dear Mrs Taylor, For a sleeveless jacket, you might work the jacket with armholes as explained, and maybe then just finish with a small edge around armholes instead of working sleeves. We are unfortunately not able to adapt every pattern to every single request, but you are welcome to contact the store where you bought the yarn (even per mail or telephone) for any individual assistance. Happy crocheting!

I am making this in XL. I am confused on round 15 where I am supposed to crochet over the 34 chain. It says to do the instructions 11 times. But that will not take me to the end of the 34 chain. Am I supposed to skip some chains? I'm stuck.
04.07.2019 - 22:55DROPS Design answered:
Dear Elena, on row 15 crochet the 11 times over the chain (do not crochet in the chain stitches but around the 34-chain-spaces, if you get the correct number of stitches on row before, then it should work. Happy crocheting!
