Synes desværre slet ikke jeres video giver mening, man kan ikke se hvor langt man er og der startes ikke tydeligt på næste runde.

Another question: I have tried a few different hooks now, but my crocheted work here, is all wavy - as if I have crocheted a surplus. How do I make it straight?

DROPS Design :

Dear Eva, make sure your stitches have all the same width, should some of them be wider, then this will impact the work. Happy crocheting!
