NOTES

—See the Glossary on page 78 for

terms you don’t know. Visit our master

glossary at http://bit.ly/iwc-glossary.

—Piece is worked in spiral rounds

using double-ended circular Tunisian-

crochet technique. A Tunisian-crochet

round consists of two passes: the

right-side (RS)-facing forward pass

to pick up loops, and the wrong-side

(WS)-facing pass to work loops off

from the opposite end. The main

color (MC) is always used for both

the forward pass and the return pass

unless otherwise stated.

—The stripes are done using the con-

trasting color (CC) on the return pass.

After the contrasting color return pass

is complete, cut contrasting color

only, leaving a 4" tail.
