How many pettles should the chain of 21 have, 5 or 6?
I am having a hard time finding my chain stitches, I mean telling them apart.
Do I go through the double stranded side of the stitch or the single side of the stitch? On the chain row, this single, double seams to move back and forth or is my chain, twisting?
I did not have this trouble with a large hook and chuncky yarn. I am using a p hook, I think.

Hi Terry,
Thanks so very much for posting these instructions. I am a beginner but I am
sure going to try this and send a few along if I am able to make them.
