Getting Started with Rails guide - getting errors in step 5.12 Using partials

[Brian Burns]

After changing the edit and new forms to use the _form partial, I get this error on trying to edit a record (I changed article to artwork for the examples):

No route matches [POST] "/artworks/2/edit"
Rails.root: c:/Users/bburns/Desktop/arttour

 "artwork"=>{"artist"=>"inness",
 "year"=>"1889",
 "title"=>"moonrise",
 "about"=>""},
 "commit"=>"Save Artwork"}

And adding a new record gets a similar error -

    No route matches [POST] "/artworks/new"

I'm new to Rails so not sure what might be going wrong - thanks in advance for any pointers 

routes.rb:

Rails.application.routes.draw do
  get 'welcome/index'
  resources :artworks
  root 'welcome#index'
end

artworks_controller.rb:

class ArtworksController < ApplicationController
 
  def index
    @artworks = Artwork.all
  end
 
  def show
    @artwork = Artwork.find(params[:id])
  end
 
  def new
    @artwork = Artwork.new
  end

  def edit
    @artwork = Artwork.find(params[:id])
  end
 
  def create
    @artwork = Artwork.new(artwork_params)
    if @artwork.save
      redirect_to @artwork
    else
      render 'new'
    end
  end

  def update
    @artwork = Artwork.find(params[:id])   
    if @artwork.update(artwork_params)
      redirect_to @artwork
    else
      render 'edit'
    end   
  end
 
private
  def artwork_params
    params.require(:artwork).permit(:artist, :title, :year, :about)
  end 
 
end

edit.html.erb:

<h1>Editing artwork</h1>
<%= render 'form' %>
<%= link_to 'Back', artworks_path %>

_form.html.erb:

<%= form_for :artwork do |f| %>
 
  <% if @artwork.errors.any? %>
    <div id="error_explanation">
      <h2>
        <%= pluralize(@artwork.errors.count, "error") %> prohibited
        this artwork from being saved:
      </h2>
      <ul>
        <% @artwork.errors.full_messages.each do |msg| %>
          <li><%= msg %></li>
        <% end %>
      </ul>
    </div>
  <% end %>
 
  <p>
    <%= f.label :artist %><br>
    <%= f.text_field :artist %>
  </p>
 
  <p>
    <%= f.label :year %><br>
    <%= f.text_field :year %>
  </p>
 
  <p>
    <%= f.label :title %><br>
    <%= f.text_field :title %>
  </p>
 
  <p>
    <%= f.label :about %><br>
    <%= f.text_area :about %>
  </p>
 
  <p>
    <%= f.submit %>
  </p>
 
<% end %>

I think that should be form_for @artwork

Hi I am also doing this tutorial but go stuck on 5.12 Using Partials.
I kept getting a message saying that the template was missing, but it wasn't.
It kept looking for _form instead of _form.html.erb, not sure why.  So to get it working I had to change the file to _form, this doesn't seem correct. I have checked all the code and all is correct, to make sure I copied the code from the web page to eradicate any typos.
I did carry on with the tutorial which  I have know finished, but this is still bugging be for future refernce.
