1. Ch 3 counts as dc, so there are 79 + 1 = 80 dc.
2. Placement of markers described in the previous paragraph.

I love this top! It was so easy to do; I crocheted it in the car on a trip to FL, perfect timing. Now to do the skirt! Thanks so much to all you people who offer free patterns to those of us who aren't as talented.

I am having a hard time with the gauge, I went clear up to a 2.75 hook and am still getting 13 dc to 2". I am using the #10 crochet thread. Any suggestions?
