Help?
http://com.yarnspirations.pattern-pd...hall.en_US.pdf
I'm trying to figure out if I need to make the back 24" before I start decreasing, or only 3". It calls for 7 skeins of yarn, which seems excessive if I only need to make the back piece 3" before I begin decreasing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Help?
It reads to me that you start to decrease once your back is three inches wide. I'm thinking it is just there to cover a hanger.

Re: Help?
I am notoriously needing help reading patterns. (I am thankful that my daughter is great at it.)
I do see where the one piece is sc in each st to end...... from beg measures 24 ins If you use the yarn suggesting, it is only about 120 yds of yarn in each ball. A G hook is small stitches,so I can see it taking 7 skeins when you are doing pockets also. |

Re: Help?
I ended up doing the back 3" before decreasing. I only have one pocket left to do and the assembly. I still have 3 skeins left. I can always return them if I don't use all of them.

Re: Help?
You could return them or make 3 wash cloths.
Does anyone wonder why my yarn stash grows? LOL |

Re: Help?
I saw a pattern for making baskets. It's a way to use up my stash of cotton yarn.
