How to Crochet with Drops Eskimo Yarn - A Comprehensive Guide

You’ll Need:

200g of Drops Eskimo yarn in brown color (# 40);

Crochet hook 5 mm.

Head circumference: 52/54 cm – 56/58 cm.

Stitches Control:

Replace the first single crochet with 1 chain stitch at the beginning of every circle row. Finish every circle row with 1 slip stitch in the first chain stitch from the beginning of the row.

Crochet from up to down.

Instructions:

1st Row:

2 chain stitches, 7 single crochets in the 1st chain stitch, finish with 1 slip stitch in the 1st single crochet = 7 single crochets;

2nd Row:

Read note. 2 single crochets in every single crochet = 14 single crochets;

3rd Row:

* 1 single crochet in the first single crochet, 2 single crochets in the next single crochet*; repeat from * to * = 21 single crochets;

4th Row:

* 1 single crochet in the first single crochet, 2 single crochets in the next single crochet*; repeat from * to * = 28 single crochets;

5th Row:

* 1 single crochet in the first 3 single crochets, 2 single crochets in the next single crochet*; repeat from * to * = 35 single crochets.

Continue making increases in the same way until you get 63-70 single crochets in a row (9-10 circle rows). Continue making 1 single crochet in every single crochet to 12-13 cm height of your work, increasing 1-0 single crochets in the last circle row = 64-70 single crochets.

Then, work in the following way: 2 single crochets in the first single crochet, * skip 1 single crochet, 2 single crochets in the next single crochet*; repeat from * to *. Repeat this row until the height reaches 17-18 cm. Then, make 1 circle row in the following way: 1 single crochet in the first single crochet, 2 single crochets in the next single crochet; repeat from * to * = 96-105 single crochets. Continue by making 1 single crochet in every single crochet until the height of your work is 25-26 cm. Cut the yarn.
