  1. I have crocheted for 47 years and I have never seen a stitch code of fpdc or bpdc. Please omeone translate for me.

  2. Time to expand your horizons.

    fpdc = front post double crochet
    bpdc = back post double crochet

  3. I just finished this pattern. I found it to be too short. I added one more row. Then,on the last row, I changed from my original color (cream) to dark brown. I also trimmed the loops at the top with slip stitches in brown. This made it fit perfectly on a roll of scotts toilet paper. Thanks for the pattern!
