Doing the angels to gift with the Christmas cards.

Some mods:

  • on the 2nd row, I begin by chaining 12 and then follow pattern as described, ending with 3 single SC. It makes much more sense to me that way. Also, there is a mistake in the pattern: you have to do 3 times 2 SC into each stitch (instead of two times) to get to the supposed stitch count, just do the math.

  • on the 3rd row and after the 6 DC into the same stitch, when I get to the 5th DC, I make the 6th into the same stitch. That way when I get to the end of the row and have to do 6 DC into the last stitch, it won’t be the stitch where 12 chain anchors, it’s more “fragile” and would be pulled out.

  • on the 4th row, just after turning, I chain 4, then do a slip stitch into the 2nd stitch from the hook, and then proceed as written. That gives me a better wing tip. When I get to the 10th SC, I do the 11th into the same stitch, for the same reason as before (3rd row). For the last stitch of the row I do a TC instead of a DC.

  • I don’t break the yarn. Instead I slipstitch unto the 11th stitch, and then proceed as written.

Almost at 30. 3,5 to go, I think.

All done. Now I just need starching, better said, glueing.
