Instructions using U.S terminology

Please note that I start all my rows with a ch 1, turning chain for ease.

Please check the top of this blog for easy video tutorials on all stitches used in today's pattern. For your convenience there video tutorials through the blog too

Please read through all my notes before you pick up your hook, so you know just where we're heading in our pattern.

In my patterns I work with the principle of stitch count and body measurement.

This means that you need to work the stitch count in pattern, till you get the measurement (length and/or width) that you need for your project.

Today’s pattern is worked inside a hoop ear ring. I found this chart and this is what I’ve done with it.

Start Row 1 : with working 38 sc around your hoop ear ring. Turn.

Row 2 : sl-st past the 1^st 6 sc ; sc in the 7^th sc ;

(ch 6, sk next 4 sc, sc in the next sc) ;

[ch 6, sk next 4 sc, dc in the next sc] ;

rep [to] once ; rep (to) once. Turn.

How to work a picot stitch : Traditionally for a ch-3 picot, you work (ch 3, sl-st in 3rd ch from hook). For a ch-5 picot, you will do (ch 5, sl-st in 5th ch from hook).

Here’s a great video https://youtu.be/8s3zVaBcn4s

Row 3 : sl-st into the 1^st ch-6 sp ;

(sc, hdc, 3 dc + picot, dc, hdc, sc) all in the same ch-6 sp ;

*sl-st into the next ch-6 sp ;

rep (to) in the same ch-6 sp* ;

sl-st into the next ch-6 sp ;

{sc, hdc, 2 dc, 2 trc + picot, 2 trc, 2 dc, hdc, sc} all in the same ch-6 sp ;

rep *to* 2 times till end.

Fasten off and weave in ends.

For a small difference, add in a bead instead of the picot.. small bling, big difference!
