    thanks for all your help

    A big thank you to everyone that tried to help me with my 2 crochet stitches.....after reading the emails I too went back to Redheart.com to look at the pattern once again, to my surprise I realized the pattern I was talking about was at Joanns.com it is the same type of pattern but Joann's had those weird stitches, I am sure now the pattern was calling for a FPDC instead of a FDC. Once again a big thank you.....

    I am so glad you are on your way to complete your afghan!! We want Pictures!! I knew it would get figured out, there are so many talented folks on here, they have yet to not be able to help. Sure enhances my confidence, I know I can work on pieces I ordinarily would not do on my own, but with the folks on here? Sky's the limit.

    LOL no worries, ya'll kept saying "FPDC' so I had to go back and look at redheart, then that is when the light bulb went off, once I seen the pattern there I went and googled it cause I hate printing from the site it self because of all the other add on's like advertisments and such, so I usually copy and paste first when I googled it, the same pattern came up but from JoAnn's.....I feel real stupid...LOL...blonde roots run deep no matter how I try to cover it.....thanks again...

    Speaking of help.....
    I found a pattern for a farmer's market bag I want to crochet. The yarn/thread??? called for is "420m DK weight cotton yarn". It calls for a 3.75 hook which I have figured out is a size F. I assume it is pretty thin. Would it be sock weight?
    thanks in advance,
    pam

    Did you figure out this by now yarnoholic. Looks like this question was missed here.

    thread size

    GrammaJoe,
    I guess my old-timers disease was acting up. I forgot what the question was and I had to look back. No, I never did get an answer. And if you've got one about size, I have another question. Is there a cotton weight that size. It's for a mesh looking market bag and worsted (Peaches & Cream cotton) would be too thick.
    thanks,
    pam

    I googled 420m DK. Seems to be a light worsted weight. One on the list showed blend of cotton and nylon. Have a peek on google. Looked again and found a chart that said it was considered medium weight in UK/NZ/AUS. .....Sorry maybe someone else will help you with this .
