You actually make it appear so easy with your presentation but I in finding this matter to be actually one thing that I believe I might by no means understand.
It sort of feels too complex and extremely huge for me. I am taking a look forward on
your next post, I’ll attempt to get the hold of it!

Yes, the (counts as first dc and ch-1 sp) is just telling you how to count the ch 4 you just made when you count your stitches for the round, it’s not telling you to crochet anything. So yes, after you do the ch 4 you’ll go on to do the (Sk 1 sc, dc in next sc, ch 1) across

Ah!! Maybe you can help me figure this out?
Rd 2: Ch 4 (counts as first dc and ch-1 sp). (Sk 1 sc, dc in next sc, ch 1) across to corner. (Dc in same sc, ch 1) 2 times more (corner turned). Repeat around for next three sides of blanket, only repeating last (dc in same sc, ch1) one time in last corner. Join with sl st to 3rd ch of 1st ch-4.

Not sure what it wants me to do after I chain 4. Do I just skip the parentheses after ‘Ch4′ and go on to ‘sk 1′?

Hi Brittany! From the way it’s written it doesn’t look like you should be working into any chain spaces, just the double crochets. Maybe there is an error in the pattern you’re working with? If it’s a Crochet Spot pattern, let me know what it is and I’ll take a look at it.

Okay, I am kindof a newbie. I need help with * skip next dc, (dc in next dc, ch 1) twice; repeat from *. The problem I am having is that I also have chain spaces in the previous row, and if I follow the pattern, it would sometimes need to be inserted into that instead of a dc… Am I missing something?

Hi Elaine, I’m not sure what “chin” means, but I think it might be a typo in the pattern. Perhaps the designer meant to say “chain 3″
