So yes, round and round =) If I ever have difficulty keeping track of the round, I tuck a short slip of a differently-colored yarn between two stitches at the beginning of the round, so that it sticks out and acts as a marker. I don't knot it, so I can just pull it out when I'm ready. On the smaller rounds, I usually just count. <br /><br />Learning to work with sl-st joined rounds was as strange for me as I'm sure continuous rounds sounds to you. I love that there's so much to learn about crochet and knitting, though!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07963622300855867612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4818063867597975980.post-12786650733671913302018-06-03T18:36:41.839-07:002018-06-03T18:36:41.839-07:00Working in the round in other patterns I’m used to...Working in the round in other patterns I’m used to connecting each round with a slip stitch. Otherwise I find it hard to keep track of what row I’m on. Do you assume we will do that? Or do you just keep going ‘round and ‘round?Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062118500033388759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4818063867597975980.post-74148191571300799382016-09-07T19:41:47.183-07:002016-09-07T19:41:47.183-07:00You are super welcome!

I learned how to crochet from YouTube, so I cant read patterns. Do you have a YouTube video where you make this or can you make one?

Just practice with other, simpler in-the-round type patterns until it's comfortable for you. Once working in-the-round and tightly is "old hat," the rest isn't so hard. We all have our strengths and weaknesses, and I've come to realize that you only get better by trying the stuff you can't do yet. =)<br /><br />('course, I still can't really knit on double-pointed needles! Would you believe, I often will finish knit hats by crocheting the smallest part of the crown? No-one's noticed yet...)Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07963622300855867612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4818063867597975980.post-58787209966182103722012-10-10T23:17:32.031-07:002012-10-10T23:17:32.031-07:00This is amazing!
