    I am currently working on the ears for the woodland spotted dear hat and am totally confused with round 2. Can you please review this step and tell me if something looks amiss. It appears to me as though only nine stitches are being address. Is there a step missing from this direction?

    Thanks for your prompt attention as I have an order for this hat and I am a very experienced crocheter

    Thanks much
