I believe what dc2tog-over 5 means, you do a partial dc, then skip 4 chs/sts, then another dc (you will have three loops on your hook), then complete the stitch by yarn over and go through the three loops on hook. I hoe this helps. I love this pattern and the colors!

After you say the color description you have this (- 2;) without the () of course, I'm kinda new to actually using patterns but does that mean we actually need 2 of each color or am I wrong? thank you so much for sharing this Beautiful pattern & giving me the chance to make this for myself or a loved one. haven't decided yet. I hope to finish creating one & when I do I'll come back & rate it to let you know how i did. Thank You Sincerely

I absolutely LOVE it. The colors are to die for as well. Do you know the "multiples" for increasing the width? I'd love to make it just a bit wider. I'd appreciate any help you could give me for increasing. I just don't know HOW to figure it out on my own. Thank you SO much.

Did you get an answer to your question? I want to do this pattern as a lapghan and I want to be sure of the math before I start.
