It’s just a way to start a double crochet that isn’t a chain. You can do any method you prefer. Chain 3, this wrap method (I don’t know the name), or foundation double crochets, they all work fine and look great. Chain 3 is self explanatory Foundation double crochet: - don’t chain any starting chains - make a single crochet in the first stitch (or the open space as shown in this pattern) - put your hook in the left leg of the stitch and do a single crochet in it This wrap method: - Don’t chain any starting chains - pull your working loop out a few cm and twist your hook to the right to make one twist - put your hook in the first stitch (or the open space as shown in this pattern) and finish out the stitch like a double crochet, no need to yarn over before hand - the twist provides the same affect as a yarn over but it allows you to do make a double crochet without chain up before hand If any of this is confusing I can edit it to make more sense to you

@@megan7292 oh my god I don’t know how I’m only seeing this a month later but thank you so much for sharing that info!! You explained it perfectly, I’ll just need to dig in and give it a shot 🤗

And I know we're only supposed to skip one every third round, but when I get farther in, I randomly have 6 spaces between the stars, so do I skip two??

Sometimes when it’s not laying flat,you need to go up a hook size.

putting this here for when I come back

a bigger hook would help! it creates more slack and helps the blanket not curl :)

same mine isn’t flat,where is the problem i’m doing every step right?😭

@@user-ye2hg4xq3u As you go if you notice it going a bit wobbly, try upping your hook size

I think it flattens as you go

Either loosen your working yarn or go up a hook size

I was going to ask the same, are you able to attach a written pattern to follow along with more easily?
