  • (With wrong side facing out) Ch1, loosely slip stitch the short ends together to form a cylinder. (32sts)
  • (Turn piece 90 degrees so you’re now working in ends of rows) Ch1, sc 50 evenly around (in ends of rows), join w/sl st in first sc. (50sts)
  • Ch2, (no turn), *hdc in next three sts, hdc2tog over next two sts*, repeat from * - * to end (40sts)
