Hi
My name is Teresa and I need to know what it means in Round 1 where in the brackets it says ( do not count as first DC from now on )
I have no idea what it means not only in this pattern- which I love or the instructions like this in brackets in other patterns usually at the beginning.
What effect does this instruction have on this or other patterns. I hope you can understand my question and help me.
Thank You
Teresa

It just means that the chains aren't counted as a double crochet. Some patterns it does count in this one it does not.
