I read through the pattern and have a question. You cast on 56 stitches and knit the first two rows and the pattern says you have 60 stitches, did I miss increases or should I have cast on 60?
Thank you so much for your feedback. The pattern has been revised to CO 60 sts.
xoxo, Kristin
The instructions say to cast on 56 stitches and then knit the first two rows and the stitch count given at that point is 60 stitches. In the video it mentions the decrease and increase in the pattern, but the cast on and knit two rows would have no increase or decrease, so should the cast on be 60 stitches?
Thank you so much for alerting me! The pattern has been revised to CO 60 sts.
