Many thanks to Sandra Eichelberger for discovering the error in Round 8 of Doretha Albee's Pineapple Heaven Doily. This is the correction:
There are no long picots created in this round. It should read:
Round 8:
Tat shell as directed above.
CH 5 *twist long picot of previous round 2 times and join to it.
CH 1 - 1 repeat from * 3 more times.
Twist long picot of previous round 2 times and join to it. CH 5. RW
Repeat Around.
