Help with an English pattern

Hi everyone, I’ve crocheted quite a bit already, but now I’ve hit a wall. I have an English pattern and can’t get any further because I don’t understand the translation at all.

Hi Dosita,

did you buy this pattern here on CP?
If so, it would probably be best to contact the author of the pattern directly.

It’s definitely hard to help you this way.

Best regards, Doreen

Hello Dosita,

just a quick note: please keep in mind that we don’t post text from patterns here (whether purchased here or elsewhere). You didn’t do that, but I’m just mentioning it again as a formality. :-)

There are some great websites online for English crochet terms. Try Googling “crochet terms English-German”—maybe that’ll help you out.

Best regards, Michaela

Hi Michaela,
yes, I didn’t write anything more about it or publish anything. … I just wanted some help, and I did find the translation sites, but they don’t help when you’re working with sentences; then it doesn’t make any sense. … But thanks
Best regards, Dosita

Dosita,
I did also write that I was only mentioning it again pro forma. ;-)
So it wasn’t directed at you.
But something like that has to be mentioned up front, since other customers might also use a thread like this to ask for help. :-)
So all good.

Tanja had already offered you help by PM. Since she speaks English very well, you’ll surely make progress with the pattern quickly.

Best regards 
Michaela
