Instructions

Foundation chain: ch 180 +1 st

Row Instructions

R1: Hdc 1 in 2nd ch from hook, hdc 1 in every ch across to end of row, ch 1 and turn your work.

R2 + 3: Hdc 1 in 1st st from hook, now we will make a special HDC – if you look at your stitch you see the V top of the stitch- look at the loop beneath the V it is called the 3rd loop. It is in front of the stitch - this is where you will yo and make your Hdc - so it makes the fabric more textured and reveals a line on each row - now 3rd loop hdc on each stitch from the prev row to the end.

R4: Ch 4 (counts as 1st st + ch space), dc in 3rd st from hook, ch 1, skip 1, dc 1, and so on across to end of row - You should have windows all across; turn.

R5: Ch 1 and hdc in 1st st from hook, hdc 1 in ch space, hdc 1 on dc from prev row, hdc 1 in ch space and so on 1 hdc in every st across to end of row. Count your stitches to ensure you have the same amount from the start. Turn work.

R6: Now we will make the sPUFF st. It is very simple: ch 1, sc in first st from hook, tr in next st, sc in next st, tr in next st, sc in next, and so on across to the end of row - 1 tr, 1 sc. This gives us the simple puff stitch - finish with a sc turn work.

R7: Ch 1, hdc in 1st st from hook on top of sc from prev row, hdc in next st (on top of tr from prev row), and so on across to end of row. 1 hdc on top of each st from the prev row. Now, we repeat rows.

R8 + 9: Repeat rows 2 + 3.

R10: Repeat row 6.

R11: Ch 1, hdc in 1st st from hook on top of sc from prev row, hdc in next st (on top of tr from prev row), and so on across to end of row. 1 hdc on top of each st from the prev row.

R12: Ch 4 counts as 1st st + ch space, dc in 3rd st from hook, ch 1, sk 1, dc 1 and so on across to end of row - You should have windows all across.

R13: Ch 1 and hdc in 1st st from hook, hdc in ch space, hdc on dc from prev row, hdc in ch space and so on 1 hdc in every st across to end of row. Count your stitches to ensure you have the same amount from the start. Turn work.

R14 + 15: Repeat rows 2 + 3.

R16: Ch 1, hdc in 1st st from hook and hdc in every ch across to end of row.
