Mystery StoleAlong II

I found some!
I've always managed to twist my crochet chain when trying to pick up the stitches into the chain which makes them not pull out right.
These instructions have you involve the knitting needle so that you're both making your crochet chain and picking up your stitches all at the same time. It's not-unlike Cat Bordhi's mobius cast on, but with a crochet chain instead.
I'm so happy...
Now if only I could figure out if I'm supposed to pick up a row of stitches and then do pattern, or just start right in on the patterned ones!
