I would love to make this Sophisticated Crochet Afghan, but I ran into a problem with row 4, I don't understand what to do with this? ( dc in next ch-1 sp 3 rows below pulling dc up to current level of work, 2 sc in next ch-2 sp ) Am I really pulling the dc up to the row I'm working in and that's it? I don't understand it?? The pattern besides that reads well and is on the page the link takes you to, you don't have to sign in, just scroll down and there it is. Anyways if someone could help with with row 4, I'll be a happy crocheter.. Thanks,

Hi Cheryl The stitch you're describing is called a long crochet or a spiked crochet stitch. The stitch can be done with any crochet stitch the length of the stitch (sc, hdc, dc, trc) will be above the top of the row. Just follow the instructions placing the beginning of the stitch where directed making sure that you pull the loop of the stitch to ABOVE the row you're crocheting on. This is also called the fan stitch when done in multiples in each stitch. Once you get the hang of it your loop tension will regulate itself and it creates a beautiful look. You can find the stitches on YouTube. I hope this helps!
