Thankyou for all of your kind words. I am just glad I was able to get this figured out.

CA: what was doing that was wrong?
1. Not turning the piece
2. Not doing what was in the brackets around the whole row.

I think that was it. Now I have done enough circles, you would think I would remember how to do this.

My next item is to somehow use up, give away, or something, all of my red heart yarn. When I went to the shop they were all talking about how "bad" it was and I felt awful sitting there using the stuff. I might become the expert in pumpkins and other "crafty" items to get them all used. I could use them to make hats on those lofty loombs that come in a variety of colors and donate/give them away to a shelter here in town. My neighbor does that. I could help add to the collection.
