This is lovely pattern and I like that the 2nd row of puff stitches are above the 1st row of puff stitches.
I’m confused about the instructions which say “the back ridge of the 1st ch” but in the pictures it looks as if the stitches are in the top of the puff stitch. I did it both ways and neither way looks like the picture. And, unlike the 1st row of puffs, the 2nd row has a thread across the top of puff, which I don’t see in the picture. In any case, it’s still a lovely pattern, even with my errors. Thank you
