NOTES

• This pattern is written in US terminology.
• In some parts “only back loop” (BLO) or “only front loop” (FLO) will be indicated.
• When you crochet in rows, each row stars by turning the piece and working some chain stitches (know as the “turning chains”) to get the right height for the following stitches.
• Turning chains at the beginning of rows do not count as a stitch.
