Without twisting, sl st to beginning ch to form ring
Round 1: ch 1, HDC in each st around. Sl st to ch 1. Do not turn.
Round 2: ch 2, DC in each st around. Sl st to top of ch 2. Turn.
Round 3-4: Repeat round 2
Round 5: sl st across 3 DC. DC in next 18. (Leave the remaining 3 stitches of this round unworked and that will equal out to be 24!) DO NOT JOIN. Turn.
Round 6: ch 2, DC in 18 DC. Ch 5. Sl st to 1st DC. Turn.
Round 7: ch 2, DC around. Turn.
Round 8-9: Repeat round 7.
Round 10: ch 1, HDC around. DO NOT TURN.
Round 11-16 (or however long you want the cuffs): Repeat round 10.
I have used your pattern and like it. I have a question in Round 5 the sl st 3 Dc and the DC 18 does not equal 24. Also I must crochet loose because I felt I needed to sc around the thumb area. It turned out good.
ReplyDeleteSorry for the late reply, I went MIA there for a bit! Thank you for bringing that up, you're supposed to leave 3 unworked after the 18 DC which will equal 24. Sorry for the confusion and I will edit the post.
