Stitch Anatomy

Special Stitches:

dc3tog cluster: *yarn over, insert your hook into the specified stitch, yarn over and pull up 1 loop, yarn over and pull through 2 loops**. Rep from * to ** 2 more times. Yarn over and pull through all 4 loops to finish the stitch. This is worked all in one stitch or space.

Notes

We begin by working in rows and then switch to rounds. There are no slip stitches to join the rounds. The seam is slightly angled but not so noticeable because of the alternating rounds of stitches.
