I really love this pattern. Is it possible to continue this pattern in rows?
Thanks so much for sharing. I have just come across your website today and appreciate your work.
I haven’t tried, it looks tricky modifying the pattern in rows along the scallops … I’ve only done some modification along the top row.
In the WIDE SCALLOP pattern in Row 7 you used the term “dcm”. Can you please tell me what dcm stands for?
Row 7: Sl st in first 3 dc, (sl st, CL) in first ch-2 sp, ch 2, skip next (3 dc, ch-2 sp and 2 dc), (1 dcm ch 5, 1 dc) in next ch-2 sp. Turn.

Hi Sue,
That’s a typo! That should be (1 dc, ch 5, 1 dc). Sorry about that, have corrected it!
Best,
