Depending on the yarn, and how you crochet, you can always add an extra row of 28 sc after that if the robe seems too short.LucyRavenscarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343160468638235491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554064124143906905.post-30769850196799330192022-11-12T15:40:55.439+00:002022-11-12T15:40:55.439+00:00I’m new…so not sure if I’m supposed to somehow go ...I’m new…so not sure if I’m supposed to somehow go back over the top of his robe.

I have a question that may be silly… I’m on Rnd 20. It says in BLO to sc until I get to the stitch marker that it previously told me to place. I’ve done that. Then it says to Work a 3dc pop in each of the next 3 st. Do I do those also in BLO? Then I’m to sc in next 5 st. Are those also BLO?

When you work row 3 that gives you a length of chain that forms the bottom of the arm hole. Rather than work into the actual chain stitches you work sc around the chain. Put your hook under the length of chain, yarn over hook, pull that under the chain, yarn over hook, pull through both loops on hook.LucyRavenscarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343160468638235491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3554064124143906905.post-26293306882622642592020-11-13T03:01:54.752+00:002020-11-13T03:01:54.752+00:00Hi!

We're just finishing up Yoda's robe and there's one instruction that I'm not familiar with: 5 sc around ch 5 (row 3). Looking at the picture, I'm guessing this means make 5 chains, skip 5 stitches and join the chain with a SC to the 6th stitch. Is that correct? I tried searching for an explanation of the term X sc around ch X but came up empty.

I received it as a Christmas present, so I had to give crocheting a try. Thank you for writing a book with clear reference pages, pictures and instructions. This is not the potholder someone told me I should start with! I think I did alright with Yoda (except he is done entirely in BLO stitches) and I have just started the storm trooper. My Online shopping cart is also full of yarns I would like to get to try more! Thank you for helping me get started in my new hobby!
