In reply to Len. Hello! Thank you for your feedback and questions - sadly, I no longer crochet and this pattern was originally posted almost five years ago. If I ever do get a chance to revisit it, I will certainly update/clarify the pattern.

Did you have testers for this pattern? I have several questions as I would love to make this but find this pattern difficult to follow.
1. Same question as other commenters below, but should we not start off with chain 8 instead of chain 7?
2. Can you confirm the number of stitches we should have at the end of each round? The jump from 51 to 64 is too small based on my numerous attempts and does not yield a base that lays flat.
3. Most patterns worked in the round slip stitch together at the end of each round. If that is not the case here, why are we chaining 2? Do those contribute to our overall stitch count? If so, why is the stitch count in parenthesis listened before the ch 2 instruction?
4. In addition to #3, since slip stitching together is standard for most patterns in the round, I would recommend stating clearly at the end of each round “Do NOT slip stitch together.” Or something along those lines.
5. Would you consider posting a video tutorial? These are so helpful especially when the pattern is a bit tricky to read. We can watch how you interpret it and replicate it on our end.

Good Morning – Found this pattern to make some beds for a shelter. I am confused if this is made in the round, why do we *ch2* before the next round without a slip stitch to join the round.

In reply to kat. It really depends on how quick of a crocheter you are. It took me an evening so probably three hours.

In reply to Fran. I see, thank you for the clarification! I've updated the pattern, hopefully it's clearer.
