I am confused on row 11. I have 7 DC in row 10. I SC in #1, ch 1 then skip #2, SC in #3, fpdc, SC in #4, ch 1 and skip #5, SC in #6, fptc. What happens to #7 please? Do I just skip it? So sorry for the trouble, I'm just not understanding. Tyvm.

This is such a unique looking afghan. I love the way the post stitches give it depth. They almost look like spokes on a wheel. I also like the colour choices the designer made. They give it a woodsy feel. I will be adding this one to my to do list also.
