Row 13: Ch2(counts as 1st dc),1dc in each of the next 6 dc,2dccl,1 dc in each of next 10 dc,2 dccl, 1 dc in each of next 14 dc, 2 dccl, 1 dc in each of 10 dc, 2 dccl, 1 dc in each of next 14 dc, 2 dccl, 1 dc in each of next 10 dc, 2 dccl, 1 dc in each of next 7 dc,turn. I came up with 78 stitches. Row 14 came out perfect. I don't see why dccl just can't be written as 1 dc decrease. But I love the pattern. Hope this helps.

I had exactly the same problem--way too many stitches. So I turned an excel spread sheet into a grid and entered each stitch in a cell. It turns out the pattern directions are correct...just written in a way that is confusing. By the way, 3 dc into next 3 st means 1 dc into each of the next 3 sts. Hope this helps.

3 dc into the next 3 st should read 1 dc in EACH of the next 3 st.

Did you figure out row 13? They have 101 stitches. There should only be 84. Not sure what part to leave out.

I am still trying to figure out row 13. I figured out 1dc in each of the next 3 stitches. I am still trying to figure out what to leave out on row 13. Any help? Love the dress.

Can you please tell me what the directions should be for row 13. Once I have the first row, the rest should be fine. Or is there another dress that uses the same pattern?

I'm assuming that row 4 should read 4 dc in the next 4 stitches and not 3 stitches?

Am I doing something wrong--On row 3 it says to do 3 dc into next 3 st. If I do this I end up with way to many stitches. This pattern is repeated and I can't figure it out--HELP!!!

Somewhere I read that 2dccl meant 2 dc decrease, not a cluster stitch like google showed. I'm hoping that will work.
