Materials

Here's what you'll need:

• 5mm crochet hook
• Worsted weight yarn: gray color (about 220 gr for size L / 50 gr or 218 yds per skein)
• Yarn needle
• Scissors

Technique Note

Note: I used a chainless starting double crochet for every first dc of each row/round instead of ch 3. Another good technique is to use ch 2, dc into the same stitch (counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below, you’ll see I simply state dc into the 1st stitch for every first dc of each row/round, so choose your best technique.

Special Stitches Used

• V stitch: (dc, ch1, dc) into the same stitch or space.
• 2dc – V stitch: (2dc, ch1, 2dc) into the same stitch or space.
