Hello. I am stuck on a pattern and need some clarification please. I am working on the Easy Baby Sundress and am having trouble understanding the end of #4. It states there will be 3 stitches left then sc AND slt join the other two dc together. I don’t quite understand what I am supposed to do. What are the other 2 dc? Are they the last 2 stitches. Am I supposed to sc in the next stitch then slt the last two stitches together?
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi Kellie, please contact author of the pattern for instructions and help.
Hello author
I have been making easy sundress and bloomers for a gift but unfortunately I lost the pattern when my phone had a problem. Can you please gift me the pattern once more? A friend asked me to make one for her new born but unfortunately I can’t remember the pattern to make.
Or if anyone has it kindly send me a copy to my email. My friend thinks I don’t want to gift her the dress but the problem is I don’t have the pattern now.
I have 3 new grand daughters, I would like to make these dresses for them. My mother in law used to crochet all these dresses, blankets, hats and things but, she is no longer here.
Thank you for these patterns
