How many groups is it worked in tracey? How will i know how many more to add for my shoulders. Is it in groups of 2's 3's 4's?

I've been dying to get something like this since i finally got myself a tube top. And i've never worn one before. Need something to cover my shoulders and back.

Thanks so much for your help and videos.

I await your response

@fhotlips The pattern I found was VERY informal. Her directions were to make the chain the width of one of your favorite t-shirts. If I had to guess it would be groups of 4 because you single crochet in every 4th chain. As you can see in the tutorial it is not terribly precise... I ended up with only 3 chains instead of 4 at the end of my first Lover's Knot row. If you would like to look over the written pattern you can visit my blog. Go to crochet or free pattern page and click on pic.

Here is a tip... To get the loops uniform in size, form the loop around your thumb.
