Subject: Help with Easter Hot Pad

I have emailed over and over about this hot pad but have not gotten an answer from crochetnmore, which is unusual.

I also have emailed her about the dog sweater I made which turnout great. However one thing I need to know why does the sweater stretch out so much? My dog can only wear it about 3-4 days it stretches too much for a male dog and he gets pee on it, yuk.

Anyway back to the hot pad, the directions are easy however I have not done a turn ch1 and sc in same stitch before. It's always been the next st.

So when I do sc in same st it gets wider and wider at that end kinda at an angle.

Plus I am using the recommended hook, and yarn but the start chain still does not come out to the 9 1/2 inch wide as stated in pattern. No matter how loose I make the chain it will not come out to the 9 1/2 inches wide.

Just a note though as I crochet each row and that row that gets wider at a slant does start to gain inches. Can someone please help and tell mw what I am doing wrong. A video on this one would be a great help... have a Blessed Day!
