hi im confused about a certain part of the mittens pattern. when i started the top of the mitten it said to chain 11 and then dc in all sts until the last one which i id 2 dc. Then it said something about going back an dc in the free loops. what the heck does that mean??
7-25-16 Love the pattern and design but I, too, am confused about the chain 11 section. Tried to locate a response but could not find any on the website. Would appreciate your answering as soon as you can, I promised these mittens for a birthday in August. Made 1 and am working on the second. Thank you for the pattern and your prompt response.
