Instructions using U.S terminology
Please note that I start all my rounds with a ch 1 turning chain for ease.
Please check the top of this blog for video tutorials of all the stitches used in today’s pattern.
Please read through the full sheet before you pick up your hook n yarn.

For today’s pattern we’re going to have a few general notes.
This hair net can fit almost all bun sizes. 
The final size is about 4” and this should work for a tiny to medium sized bun. For an extra large bun, you just need to work a few more rounds.

Instructions
Start with a bead that goes through yarn and hook. 
Work a slip knot and then pass yarn and hook through bead ;
yarn over and work a sl-st ;
yarn over, turn bead and sl-st again through other end of bead.  
You should now have the bead in the centre with two bits of yarn going through and around both sides of the bead. 
We will now work our sc around the two bits of yarn that go around the bead.

Round 1 : work 4 sc in the 1st sp (around bead) ;
work 4 sc around the next ch-sp
(around other side of bead) ;
 join to the 1st st. (8 sts)

Round 2 : 2 dc in the 1st sc and in each sc all around  ;
join to the 1st st. (16 sts)

In the next round we will work a dc 2-tog.
Please check the top of this blog for a video tutorial if needed. 
So here’s how we will work our dc 2-tog for the pattern today. 

We will work the 1st dc 2-tog as we usually do, but for the next and all following ones, we will work the 1st leg of the dc 2-tog in the previous st (i.e. the last dc 2-tog) and the 2nd leg of the dc 2-tog in the next st.  This means that with every dc 2-tog you will be working the first part in the last st and the next leg in the next st all around.  Got it?

Round 3 : dc 2-tog over the 1st 2 dc ;
(ch 3, dc 2-tog around the last dc and the next dc) ; 
rep (to) all around ;
ch 1 + hdc and join to the 1st st.
You are now in the centre of the ch-3 sp.  Place marker for convenience.
You start right here.
In case this is confusing, please work a ch-3 and join to the 1st st.
Remember though that with each new round, you will need to sl-st into the centre of the 1st ch-3 sp.
In that last dc 2-tog  you will work the 1st leg of the st in the last dc 2-tog and the next leg of the st in the next (or 1st) dc 2-tog to finish.

Round 4 : sc in the 1st ch-sp ;
(ch 3, sc in the next ch-3 sp) ;
rep (to) all around ;
ch 1 + hdc and join to the 1st st.

Round 4 : Increase round :
sc in the 1st ch-3 sp ;
ch 3, sc in the same 1st ch-3 sp ;
(ch 3, sc in the next ch-3 sp ;
ch 3, sc in the same ch-3 sp) ;
rep (to) all around ;
ch 1 + hdc and join to the 1st st.

Rounds 5 – 9 : Rep Round 3.

Check the diameter of your circle. 
You should have about 4 – 4 ½” for a small bun. 
If not, then work one round of increase and then one or two rounds without increase.  Remember to keep checking diameter.

Now comes the fun part.  We need to attach on the elastic.
So hold your elastic against that last round, and work sc all around looping it around your elastic as well as the bun stitches.

2nd Last round : We work 2 sc in each ch-sp all around and join with a sl-st.
Fasten off and weave in ends.

Note that when working with elastic, you will need to stretch the elastic a bit and ease your stitches around as you work. 

Last Round : (with elastic)


Here's a video for working with elastic.  In case  this video does not come on, go to  https://youtu.be/T5Qc3q2N0ds

Right, so you hold the elastic near the first st, and work the first stitch into both the elastic and your hair net.
Work 1 sc in each sc all around, stretching the elastic gently as you work all around.
Join to the 1st st.
Fasten off and weave in ends.

Finishing :
Remember to turn your hair net over and fasten off that first starting yarn and glue all ends down.
As this is a hair net and the last round needs stretch, remember to glue just the end of that final yarn. 
Do not glue too long a length, as it reduces stretch.
