Here is the pattern. I am making nursing pads and can't seem to figure out what happens in rounds 4-10...every time I think I've got it, I don't...can someone dumb it down for me and explain what it is I am supposed to be doing. I'm so awful with math that I can't figure it out on my own!! Thank you so much! It is greatly appreciated!!
ch 3 and join to form ring
(row 1) ch 2; hdc 6 into ring; join to top of ch-2 with sl st (7 st)
(row 2) ch 2; hdc 2 into each of next 6 st; hdc into base of ch-2; join w/sl st
(row 3) ch 2; (hdc 1 into next st; hdc 2 into following st) x 6; hdc; hdc into base of ch-2; join w/sl st
(rows 4-10) continue as above, making one additional hdc per repeat. Tenth row should have 70 st total. Bind off, cut yarn, and weave in ends.
You are suppose to do 7 increases on each round. In round 2 you did this by increasing in each stitch. In round 3 you did this by increasing every 2nd stitch. In round 4 you will do this by increasing in every 3rd stitch. In round 5 you will do this by increasing in every 4th stitch and so on through round 10.
Basically this is how to make a circle, any circle. Hope this makes sense!
