On the Mermaid/Fish/Shark Tail Fin instructions, it appears that this row should be [[sc in next 2 sts]] in the part I have bracketed below. At least it didn’t seem to work for me unless I did that. Thanks for a fun pattern set!
Row 7: Ch 1, turn, sl st in next 2 sts, [[sc in next 3 sts]], sl st in last 2 sts, (2 sc, 4 sl st).
Thanks for your input Cheryl! Yes, R7 on the Mermaid Tail has been amended to correct the stitches to 1 sl st at the beginning, 3 sc, and 2 sl st at the end for a total stitch count of 3 sc, 3 sl st! You caught a bit of the writing process there, where I changed the pattern but didn’t correct the written portion! Thanks for reading and glad to hear you are enjoying the pattern! 🙂
Happy Summer,
