PATTERN NOTES
▪ Join most rounds with a SLST on top of the beginning stitch, unless otherwise mentioned.
▪ Pattern repeats within a round may be marked as * * around.
▪ Please read through the ‘STITCHES & TERMS‘ section before starting your project. The stitches
are listed and otherwise explained in the rows of the pattern itself.
▪ CH 3 can be substituted with a CSDC; CSDC always counts as the first DC. If coupled with a FP-
SLST, it refers to the first FPDC, if coupled with a BP-SLST; it refers to the first BPDC. Stitch
repeat for CSDC, or CH 3, within a round is always a DC.
▪ Beginning DC2tog : CH 2, YO insert hook in the next ST and pull up a loop, YO and pull through
2 loops, YO and pull through all loops on the hook.
▪ Beginning DC3tog: CH 2, YO insert hook in the next ST and pull up a loop, YO and pull through
2 loops, YO and insert hook in the next ST and pull up a loop, YO and pull through 2 loops, YO
and pull through all loops on the hook.
▪ FP-2DC-Cluster : YO and insert hook around the specified post and draw up a loop, YO and pull
through 2 loops, YO and insert hook around the same post and draw up a loop, YO and pull through
2 loops, YO and pull through all loops on the hook.

Cut the thread and weave in the ends. Block your project. Working with Coats India Mercerised
knitting cotton ( thread size is almost same as DMC size #5, slightly thinner ) and a size 2.00 mm
hook yields a project size of 7.5 inches / 19 centimetres.
