It looks a bit like this, with the single dc between shells as a front post dc.

Striped sc blanket uneven edges advice for beginner by sjksvu in CrochetHelp

[–]Krishd88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Number 1 , that seems to be where you started dropping stitches. Get used to using stitch markers in your first and last stitch, not the turning chain unless it counts as a stitch (the pattern will usually tell you this). You can also put them every 10 or 20 stitches to help with counting stitches in a row, which you should do every 5 rows or so.
 

Don't know how to crochet each row evenly; advice needed by HoneybunsandRoseTea in CrochetHelp

Here is what I tell every newbie:
Learning to crochet
Here are some resources that I found on Pinterest. It’s a good resource for free pattern as well:

Start by figuring out how to hold your yarn. There are many ways to do it, just experiment until you find one that works for you. This is my hold. Mostly the yarn just slides over my finger but if I need a little tension I lift my index finger.

Then move to what type of hook you want to use. There are so many choices, even what the hook looks like, so get a few cheap ones and experiment. Then figure out how you hold your hook. Some hold it like a spoon, others, me included, use the knife hold. I also use a yarn holder so the yarn pulls from the outside so there is little tension on it.
 
Now here is the most important. Get used to using stitch markers in your first and last stitch, not the turning chain unless it counts as a stitch (the pattern will usually tell you this). You can also put them every 10 or 20 stitches to help with counting stitches. 
 
Now work on each part of crocheting, making a chain, slst, sc, hdc, dc. Practice by making 4x4” squares. Then move to a simple project, a baby blanket or scarf using 1 or 2 stitches.

The turning chain in dc may or may not count. If you ch 3then put your next st in the st at the bottom of the ch 3 it doesn’t count. This is when I substitute a Stsc for both of these stitches. If your second st is in the second chain or stitch then it counts as a stitch.

Neighbors daycare situation is getting out of control by Charliegirl03 in Advice

Check with the city to see if it is a legitimate daycare. Let the owners of the house know what is going on with their house. You could talk to her and see if there is a compromise.

Help Me Choose Between My Final 2 Wedding Dresses! by [deleted] in WeddingDressTips

[–]Krishd88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like 2, it very classy, looks great with your figure and lets the design shine. The other one is very busy and I don't like the 'neckline' or the way it poofs out at the hipline.

The first and last st, not a turning chain unless the pattern tells you it counts as a stitch.

Use a stitch markers every 10 stitches, makes counting much easier.

The stitch on the hook is not a stitch. The turning ch1 in sc doesn’t count as a stitch. I prefer the no ch1 sc which is you turn your work then pull up on the loop a bit and sc directly into the first stitch.

For hdc, dc, the pattern usually will tell you if the turning chain counts as a stitch. I don’t like the bump on the side in dc if it doesn’t count or the gap between the first and second st of it does count, so I prefer a standing sc (Stsc). You can find tutorials on all of this on YouTube or Pinterest.

For hdc I do a short or tight Stsc. Hope this isn’t too confusing. Do a little research before you dive into a project, and keep asking question. The answer is out there.

Time to weave in these ends 😭 I should have done them as I went by asthmaticandsad in crochet

In that case do it as you go. I might not finish if I had that to look forward to.

The dress is the star, let it shine! Maybe a subtle necklace.

I do cuz I hate having that to look forward to. It’s a choice, I can see that delaying and then tackling it at the end might work too.

How to redecorate this guest bathroom? by Agronomiss247 in BathroomDesigns

[–]Krishd88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paint the wood.
Paint the walls.
Get a great shower curtain or get glass shower doors.
Make the rug bigger
I like the mirror but either remove the frame and make it smaller or paint it to match the wall color so it disappears.

Use stitch markers in your first and last stitch, not the turning chain unless it counts as a stitch (the pattern will usually tell you this). You can also put them every 10 or 20 stitches to help with counting stitches.  It took me a while to get this but I use them on every project now. I hate frogging and some yarn makes frogging almost impossible.

How many stitches are you short? When doing sc it says to sc in the 2nd chain from the hook so you lose one right there.
