Sleeves

1st round – ch5, dc1 into sm.ch, ch3, sk1 dc, sc5, ch3, [Vst into inc, ch3, sk1 dc, sc5, ch3] to end + sl.st.1 into 3rd ch

Hi Salma omran,
Hi Salma omran,
Thanks for the good question. For the XS size, I would make the same foundation chain, but join front and back parts differently. Please watch the video starting from about 12:18. Happy crochet!

Hi dipali125,
Hi dipali125,
Please read my very first comment and the chart too. Yes, you may use any yarn you have, but check your gauge. I use US crochet terms. Happy crocheting!

Hi Luz,
Hi Luz,
Would you mind to reupload the image one more time. For some reason your previous image took the same name as an image of another crocheter. I'm not able to reupload the image myself. Thank you. I would be glad to see your work.

Hi Sana, I don't know what
Hi Sana, I don't know what happen but I can see it that I upload it right. I will upload it again. Thanks.

Hi Luz,
Hi Luz,
Thank you for reuploading the image. It is very beautiful. Excellent work as always. You did upload the image right from the first time, but the system named the image the same as another existing image on the site for some reason. That's why I saw that image and not yours. Now when you reuploaded the picture everything became normal on my end. Thank you and thank you for sharing. I appreciate it.
