That’s great thanks. My
That’s great thanks. My foundation chain also seems to be a lot smaller than yours even at 60 chains I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
Hi Manny,
Hi Manny,
I suggest to try your unfinished project on to see how the neckline stretches. If you won't like the look, it will be necessary to use 72 foundation chains instead of 60 chs. Then work the 1st row differently (as I instructed for the 72 chs or XXL size). Happy crochet!

Hi Ri,
Hi Ri,
Thank you for letting me know. Unfortunately some people are able to appreciate someone's hard work while others are not. Happy crochet!

Hi I love your design n I started crochet with your design but I stuck on 17 row how to stitch 17 row underarms 16 row underarms you showed in video but after how to stitch remaining rows underarms plz help me I want to gift this jacket to my sister.
Hi Neha,
Hi Neha,
Begin the row 17 as your row 16 (work shell into shell), then work [chain 3 and half double crochet 3 between picots] to end. Finish the row 17 as your row 16 (work shell into shell).
Work the row 17 similar to the row 5 without working corners. I suggest watching the video from about 14:35 to 15:55. Happy crochet!

Hi Neha,
Hi Neha,
Thank you for uploading the picture. I see that you created one repeat/flower under the arm as you should. You may pause the video at about 20:57 (row 16) to see that you should have 6 repeats/flowers before this additional repeat/flower that you showed me on the picture.
The row 17 requires to work 3 chs and hdc3 above Vsts of each previous row flower. After you work [ch3, hdc3] x 6, you need to work ch3, hdc3 between picots of your underarm repeat/flower. Happy crochet!
