Pattern for DROPS Children 23-60

MAGIC CIRCLE:
When piece is worked in the round, start with this technique to avoid holes in the
middle (instead of ch-ring): Hold the yarn end and wind the yarn one time around the
index finger to make a loop. Hold the loop with left thumb and middle finger, place the
thread over left index finger. Insert hook through the loop, make a YO and pull thread
through loop, work ch 1, then work sc around the loop. When the desired no of sc
have been reached, pull the yarn end to tighten the loop. Fasten the yarn end at the
back. Continue to work in the round in a circle.

WORK IN THE ROUND IN A CIRCLE:

After last sc on the round, continue to next round with 1 sc in next sc (= first sc from
previous round). NOTE: Insert a marker at the beg of round between last sc and first
sc on the round, move the marker upwards when working.

INCREASE TIP:
Inc 1 sc by working 2 sc in next sc.

DECREASE TIP:
Dec 1 sc by working 2 sc tog as follows: * Insert hook in next sc, get thread *, repeat
from *-* one more time, make a YO and pull thread through all 3 sts on hook.

in 1st and 2nd ch = 4 sc. Continue in the round and work a total of 16 sc with 1 sc in

Worked back and forth. Crochet a row with 8 ch and pistachio on hook size 4.5 mm/
US 7, then crochet along the ch-row as follows: 1 sl st in 2nd ch from hook, 1 sc in
each of the next 2 ch, 1 hdc in next ch, 1 dc in each of the next 2 ch, 2 sc in the last
