Dec every 3rd alt rows
by: Ratchadawan

Hi,

I just want to make a correction for my reply to your question. It is correct that you count row 1 after your decreasing row, but you will do dec on alt 3rd. This means that you will do dec every other 3 rows, or every 6 rows.

Thank you, sorry for my mistake.

Dec every 3rd alt row
by: Ratchadawan

Hi,

This is how I would do it:

Decrease the next row. Then start counting the row after dec row as 1 and work even row 2 (and 1 or course), then dec on row 3. So, yes, start counting as row 1 after dec row. So, it'll be like dec row, 1, 2, dec row, 1, 2, dec row, ect.

Thank you for visiting and question. Have a wonderful day!

Ratcha
