Stuck on the hood

Postby begcroc4juan » Wed Feb 15, 2012 5:15 pm

Dear Helping hands... I hope you can help me with this issue. I am making the Bernat Crochet hooded flower baby blanket but have gotten stuck on crocheting the hood. In the patter for the hood it goes as follows:

HOOD:
With A and smaller hook, ch 30.
1st row: (RS). 1 dc in 4th ch from hook. 1 dc in each ch to last 3 ch. (Yoh and draw up a loop in next ch. Yoh and draw through two loops on hook) twice. Yoh and draw through all loops on hook - dc2tog made. 1 tr in last ch. Turn.
2nd row: Ch 3. Dc2tog over next 2 sts. 1 dc in each dc to end of row. Turn.
3rd row: Ch 3. 1 dc in each dc to last 3 sts. Dc2tog over next 2 sts. 1 tr in last st. Turn.

Rep last 2 rows to 2 sts. Fasten off.

I am stunk on the last part: Rep last 2 rows to 2 sts... Please help me understand what is meant by this. How many rows am I supposed to go and do I stop at the last 2 stitches in that row?

Please help!

I believe it means that you will repeat those last two rows over and over again, until you finally end up with just 2 stitches.

Thank you so very much...I will give it a try. I kind of figured that was what it meant but it didn't seem like the stitches were decreasing. thanks again...I will let you know how it comes out. :)
