HOOK SIZE: I am using a 4mm hook in this tutorial, this is a Nelsonwood hook, I am not affiliated or sponsored. I am frequently asked what hook I'm using and where I found it, if you would like to see his work you can follow him in Instagram or visit his website www.nelsonwood.net. I recommend using the below hook sizes depending on yarn used: 3 DK yarn : 3.5mm to 4.5mm Size 4 Medium/worsted weight: 4.5mm to 5.5mm. Mixing 3 & 4 weight: 3.5mm to 4.5mm THE YARN: I'm using size 3 and size 4 yarn, any brand will work as well as any size. Hayfield Bonus Dk Extra Value in Cream I Love this Yarn Prints in Botanical Blast Note on mixing yarn sizes 3 (DK) & Size 4 (Medium Worsted weight): THE TRICK TO MIXING YARN SIZES IS JUST KEEPING YOUR TENSION EVEN AND USING THE SMALLEST SIZE HOOK RECOMMENDED FOR THE SMALLER YARN! You can use any yarn size you like and can use yarn that is all the same size, you do not have to mix yarn sizes. Project info and starting: To begin your project you will chain in multiples of 14 plus 4 at the end to work a flat piece. You will skip the first chain and begin working in the second chain from the hook, ending up with an odd number of stitches. EXAMPLE: I chained 32 and had 31 stitches at the end of my first Foundation Row. TO WORK IN THE ROUND: chain in multiples of 14 amd slip stitch to the first chain. begin working the repeat in the first stitch [same stitch you slip stitches into) and follow the Repeat as given in the video. Stitches used in this project: Back Loop Single Crochet and Front Loop Double Crochet (drop down double crochet as I like to call it).
