You are dropping the last stitch in the turn.

When you get to the end of your row, do a single stitch, a chain stitch, then turn and continue your row.

If you are doing double crochet rows, add 2 chain stitches at the end.

Just use your imagination! What I wanna know is why a lesbian knows so much about this! Or maybe she doesn't... she's still trying to work it out after all!~Pchela

If you imagined the topic was of shower head massagers you wouldn't need a man, or a lesbian for that matter. ~Adrena

This ^ whole thing is made of win!

It shouldn't matter lefty or righty Lynlee. Try counting how many stitches (not chains). Then count as you go. When you've reached the number of stitches chain 1 or 2 (depending on sc or dc), turn and repeat. This is structural, not technique, so it shouldn't matter what hand you're using.

I looked up left handed crochet and found this. She turns the corner at about 5:00 in. :)

I was JUST getting ready to look for vids....I learn by seeing, not by hearing it explained. I'm also not so good at explaining things, lol.

Back in grade scool we had to take a CAT (?) test (california aptitude test I think) and I scored higher than 99% of children my age in a few categories, but the one I remember is math. I was REALLY good at math.....but I could NOT show my work! They made me retest twice and I scored the same the second time and higher the third time, but still couldn't show my work. Finally, a teacher sat with me and asked me to tell her how I did it. So for each question I would say aloud how I was figuring things. She understood, and I was doing it the right way, but when she tried to make me write it down as I worked the problems I would get confused and get the answers wrong. They finally figured I wasn't cheating, I just learn a little different :)


So, watching that video helped me out so much more than reading the proper way to do it, thank you~!!

see~ I'm sure this is a good explanation but it reads greek to me! I don't KNOW if I'm doing double crochet rows or single ones!! LMAO, I sure appreciate all the help though!

If you are doing double crochet rows, add 2 chain stitches at the end.

That is one awesome-looking mod cozy. I may be biased since I have a sweater that matches it (that is fairly cozy itself).

So why did your boyfriend turn red? Was it one of those Gift of the Magi things where he'd gotten rid of his tube mod and only had a box?
