2016-06-18 = finished rounds 1-12.
2016-06-19&20 = finished rounds 13-22.
2016-06-21 = finished rounds 23-25.
2016-06-22 = finished round 26.
2016-06-23 = finished rounds 27-29
This is going rather slowly because even though I know the finished product will be beautiful, the rows are extremely repetitive and boring.
2016-06-27 = finished rounds 30-31.
2016-06-28 = finished rounds 32-36.

HELP WITH ROUND 12:
At the beginning of round 12 it reads:
“sl st in ch sp, ch3”
In the pattern notes it reads:
“Chain-3 at beginning of double crochet rounds counts as first double crochet unless otherwise stated.”
So your first DC of this round is right after you slst-ed into the first space, the ‘ch3’ I quoted above.
Then it reads “tr cl (see special stitches) in bottom of first 2 sc”
This is a TR-2-Tog stitch. Holding back the last loop of both stitches, you will TR first around the first SC of the previous round, which is a little down and to the right. That’s what it means by “bottom” because there is no ‘post’ to a SC. Usually you work these kinds of stitches around a DC post, but SC do not have posts, so you just wrap it around the stitch. Then work your second TR (holding back the last loop of this stitch as well) around the next SC, then y.o. and pull through the 3 loops on your hook (1 beg loop, 1 loop from your first TR, and 1 loop from your 2nd TR).

Then you will work behind this cluster you just made and DC into the same space as your beg CH 3, which was your first DC of the round.
