For this project you’ll need:
- HOOK: 5 mm hook or size H hook for the US
- YARN: 1 skein of worsted weight yarn, 4 ply US, 10 ply AU / 100 grams / 3.5. oz -240 meters / 262 yards
- And a Stitch Marker
Sizes from baby to adult.
Increase until you have…..
- Baby – 36 sts – 3 months to a year
- Toddler \ Child – 48 sts – 2 to 10ish years
- Teen \ Adult – 60 sts
Sizing continued….Once you have your increase number for your size, you will need to even out your number to a solid number. This is because the stitch are in sets of 10. So the following row after you have done increasing, you will have to add a few more increases along the next row as you go. Baby size will need 40 sts total, Toddler \ Child size will need 50 total. The adult size is a solid even number so no more increases will be necessary.
