Round 1: 3dc [4dc, 4dc] in 4 th ch from hook, dc in each ch across, working 7dc [9dc, 9dc] into<br />
last ch. dc into back loop of each ch across. 3dc [4dc, 4dc] in last ch (the ch that was 4 th<br />
from hook when you started). sl into starting ch-3 to join round. [total 42 dc [52 dc, 60<br />
dc], including initial ch3]<br />
Round 2: ch2, work 2-hdc shell next 1 [2, 2] st, hdc into next st, 2-hdc shell into next st, hdc into<br />
each of next 13 [10, 14] st, dc into next 1 [7, 7] st, 3-dc shell into next st, dc into each of<br />
next 2 [3, 3] st, 5-dc shell into next st, dc into each of next 2 [3, 3] st, 3-dc shell into<br />
next st, dc into next 1 [7, 7] st, hdc into each of next 13 [10, 14] st, 2-hdc shell into next<br />
st, hdc into next st, work 2-hdc shell next 1 [2, 2] st, sl to join round.<br />
Round 3: ch2, hdc tbl into next 18 [24, 28] st, 2-dc shell tbl into next 0 [1, 1] st, dc tbl into next 8<br />
[7, 7] st, 3-dc shell tbl into next st, dc tbl into next 7 st, 2-dc shell tbl into next 0 [1, 1]<br />
st, hdc tbl into next 19 [24, 28] st, sl to join round.<br />
Round 4: ch2, hdc into next 18 [24, 28] st, dc2tog 1 [0, 0] times, dc into next 5 [21, 21] st, work<br />
(dc2tog, dc3tog, dc2tog, dc into next 3 st, dc2tog) 1 [0, 0] times, hdc into next 18 [24,<br />
28] st, sl to join round.<br />
Round 5: ch2, hdc2tog 1 [0, 0] times, hdc into next 9 [21, 25] st, (small only: place marker into<br />
hdc just worked), dc into next 0 [2, 2] st, hdc into next 5 [0, 0] st, dc2tog, dc into next 1<br />
[7, 7] st, dc2tog 2 [1, 1] times, dc into next 1 [0, 0] st, dc3tog, dc into next 1 [0, 0] st,<br />
dc2tog 3 [1, 1] times, dc into next 0 [6, 6] st, dc2tog 0 [1, 1] times, dc into next 0 [1, 1]<br />
st, hdc into next 3 [21, 25] st, (small only: place marker into hdc just worked), hdc into<br />
next 10 [0, 0] st, hdc2tog 1 [0, 0] times, sl to join round.<br />
Note: do not remove markers until finishing stage–they indicate where to attach<br />
straps.<br />
Round 6: small: ch1, sc into top of ch-2 from prev round, sc into next 16 st, (sc2tog, sc) three<br />
times, sc into next 14 st, sl to join round. Do not work round 7, which is only necessary<br />
for the larger sizes. Cut yarn and bind off.<br />
medium [large]: ch2, hdc, hdc2tog, hdc into next 4 st, hdc2tog, hdc into next 2 [3] st,<br />
place marker into hdc just worked, hdc into next 6 [10] st, (dc into next 2 st, dc2tog)<br />
three times, dc, dc3tog, dc, (dc2tog, dc into next 2 st) three times, hdc into next 2 [4] st,<br />
place marker into hdc just worked, hdc into next 10 [12] st, hdc2tog, hdc into next 2 st,<br />
sl to join round. Do not bind off. Continue to round 7.<br />
Note: do not remove markers until finishing stage–they indicate where to attach<br />
straps.<br />
Round 7: medium [large]: ch1, sc into top of ch-2 from prev round, sc into next 21 [25] st,<br />
(sc2tog, sc) three times, sc into next 16 [20] st, sl to join round. Cut yarn and bind off.<br />
