Thanks for your comment. Don't forget to share!

so is this the updated pattern that was mentioned in the comments

I was very disappointed after spending a few hours trying to make this pattern work. It definitely has some sections missing and although I tried to adapt it, it would not work, so I had to abandon it. Such a shame. I recommend that it should be removed until it is corrected.

Hi there - which parts are causing you problems? I can reach out to the designer and see if she has any updates to the pattern. Thanks! - Julia from FaveCrafts

Is there a tutorial for this pattern. I have been unable to finish the pattern.

Hi there, The pattern is listed in full above and has been recently updated by the pattern designer. Is there something I can help you with? - Julia from FaveCrafts

Definitely some directions missing... Directions don't match up to the stitches... Go from 48 stitches and lose five without them being accounted for and same for the next step. Hope the designer updates this soon as it's a cute bootie!

The pattern has now been updated - thanks!

I don't understand how to attach the motif to the bootie. I need help on rnd 4.

Hi there, I have reached out to the pattern designer and will update the project when I received more information. Thanks!

Hi again, The designer is going to rework the pattern and send edits as soon as possible. Thanks!

The pattern has now been updated - thanks!

Hi Erangi for Crochet for You, I have no choice but to agree with Member 6906129. There is some instructions missing with this pattern. Also, starting Rnd 4 and on was downhill for me. Sadly, I was not able to finish this project. :( Maybe, if you read the instructions you can probably see where we were not able to understand it. Thank you anyway, Mary

Hi Erangi for Crochet for You, I was wondering as to what does (48) means in row 3 and 4 stand for? It kind of threw me off. Thanks for any response. Mary

Hi Mary M Miranda...thanks for the comment. The 48 is the total number of stitches you've done in that row so far...so for row three, at the end of the row, you should have 48 stitches. Hope that helps! FaveCrafts Editor

This is a very confusing pattern. Under bootie, it says chain 10, then next it says Chain 3. I wish there was a video tutorial because someone obviously missed some steps in this pattern

Hello...Yes it does says chain 10 and then chain 3. The chain 3 is considered as a double crochet to start off the row and then to double crochet from the 4th chain from the hook to make it the second double crochet. Hope this helps.
