MATERIALS:

Worsted weight yarn (approximately 3 ounces total)

Size US H (5.0 mm) crochet hook

Tapestry needle

SIZES: Woman’s medium 20 inch (Woman’s large 22 inch)

NOTES:

1. Read through all instructions before beginning.

2. Cut the yarn and fasten off for the color changes.

3. Beginning ch 2 doesn’t count as a stitch, it is there as a filler. Make the first stitch of the round in the same stitch as the ch 2.

4. Pull the joining slipstitches tight, so that they don’t get counted as a stitch on the following round.

5. Each time you fasten off a color, use your yarn needle to weave the end in and out of the back loop of the stitches. Then you will crochet over it.

6. Work rounds 7, 9, 11 with contrasting color.

7. I used Red Heart Super Saver yarns, Petal Pink and Pink Camo.
