Hi :) My name is Regitze, and I'm 15, so obviously I'm quite new at crocheing, so thos question may be unnecerassy, and for that I apoligize. I'm making these shorts in a size s, and unfortunatly the pattern collides with the sidemarks where I'm supposed to make two masks in one on both sides of the mark. I'm not sure what to do here, or if i made a mistake earlier on causing the collision. Kind regards, Regitze :)

DROPS Design :

Dear Regitze, the markers on the sides are in the middle of the 5 sts (treble crochet, UK-English / double crochet, US-English), and you then increase as under INCREASE TIP-2: work until 1 stitch remain before the stitch with the marker, work 2 sts in the next stitch, work the middle stitch with the marker, work 2 sts in the next stitch and work the next stitch (= there are now 7 instead of 5 treble /double crochets after 1st increase. Repeat on the other side - and work remaining stitches as before. Hope it can help. Happy crocheting!

Is there something wrong with the audio on this? There is no sound when I play it. Also, a lady in a crochet group I am in is trying to make these shorts, and she would like to see it close-captioned.

DROPS Design :

Dear Jennifer. Nothing wrong with the videos. Since the videocips themselves are the same for each as there is no sound. I order to follow the turoeial, you have to read the description of the video carefully, and then watch it. You should also read through the pattern wich the tutoeial is connected to, thoroughly. I hope this helps. Happy crafting!
