Hi Helen, the next stitch is the slip stitch (the last stitch you made on round 1). After you ch 3, then turn, that will be the next stitch to work into.

Hi Rachel,

I can’t figure out the tail either. When you say “then make 2 double crochets in the the next stitch” – Which stitch is the “next stitch”? :S… every time I try to make the tail it turns into a weird bump at the end of a perfect fish body

The goldfish is made using the goldfish applique crochet pattern. The tail is made in round 2 where it says "ch 3, turn, 2 dc in next st, finish off." This means that you are going to chain 3, then make 2 double crochets in the the next stitch, then you are done.

Hi, Rachel!

Your website is great. I love the little “embellishments” you create. How about a bunny, a dog, cat, etc. Little kids love “critters” and I would like to put them on some of the little kid clothes I make. Keep up the good work! Hope you sell lots of patterns.

to work into the opposite side of the foundation chain, you are going to turn your work (upside down) so that your next stitch will go into the same chain that you made your previous stitch into, but using the remaining loops of the chain that are on the other side. This is sort of like working in a circle. Your last stitch will be close to the first stitch you made in the round
