Notes
- The cluster (4dctog) is worked with 3 dc around the stem of the previous dc and one in the indicated stitch. This post from Moogly shows the method of wrapping the stitches around the stem of the stitch.
- Every couple rows, it is helpful to count your number of clusters to make sure that you aren’t dropping a cluster.
- The 4dctog is worked leaving the last loop of each dc on the hook and then pulling through all 5 loops on the hook to finish the stitch. Tutorial for stitch can be found here
