[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Increasing crochet scallops

[Tammy Freitag]

Tracy,
Adding that 6th dc to your scallop will not increase the depth of that
row. I would experiment with doing another row of dcs  before the row
of hdcs.  It would increase the depth of the row and keep the pretty
scallops.

It sounds really pretty!
Take care!
Tammy
