Recommended Experience

This pattern is ideal for intermediate crocheters, based on Crochet Yarn Council standards. Advanced beginners who are comfortable learning a new stitch pattern with close attention to detail may also succeed. Recommended skills include:

• Willingness to practice and master a new stitch pattern

• Following detailed instructions carefully

Important:
You will be required to make a test swatch first. This swatch will be used to calculate your custom starting chain. If you prefer not to do the math yourself, a pre-made Google Sheet is included to do the calculations for you!
