are given as well as yardage or gauge.

Hometown USA by Lion Brand super bulky weight ( 6 ) using a

I have used single
crochet, double and half double all with good success.
Written in American terms
Stitches
Ch = chain
hdc = half double crochet
2) hdc in all chains.. you can use the bar or top loop I've done both but like the looks of going through the bar... turn
3) ch 1, hdc to end, turn
repeat row 3 as many times as you like to reach half the thickness you want
once you have half the thickness you want, fold in thirds with the live stitch in the center of the folds. Place a marker at that fold. See photo below
Hdc to the marker, count
how many stitches you have undone, chain that many plus 1 for turning
chain.
Turn, hdc into second ch,
hdc to end of row
Repeat row 3 until you
have the same thickness as the first half.
Fasten off leaving a tail
about 12 inches long for seaming.
Seam edges to the
beginning edge, making sure to “twist” them.. placing the top
panel of the split side along the bottom part of the beginning edge
and the bottom panel over the top panel. See photo.
Weave in ends.
