Thanks for the pattern
Hi can you please tell me what the stitches are i live in Australia and know that American stitches are named differently to here.
dc (US )are TREBLES (AU )
fpsc(US) are fpdc(AU)
chains are chains both terminology
If Australia has the same terms as the UK, chain and slip stitch are the same.
US single crochet = UK double crochet
US double crochet = UK treble crochet
US front post single crochet = UK front post double crochet
Basically, whatever the US says, go one step up from that and you will have the UK equivalent. I hope this helps!
