Yarn:
Müller Super Preis, 1x 50g red
a
bit of black for the barbells
Hook Size:
Nr. 3
Abbrevations (US Terms)
V: increase (The
letter V looks like the crochet symbol for increasing!)
A: decrease (The
letter A nearly looks like the crochet symbol for decreasing!)
x6: repeat 6 times
sc: single crochet
Notes
" Crochet in continuous spiral rounds.
" Use the invisible decrease (only the
front loops of both stitches).
" I always split my increases and
decreases.
If there is an even number of stitches between the increases
or decreases, for example (14, V) x6, - work 7, V, (14, V) x5, 7 instead.
Rows with an odd number of stitches between increases or
decreases are worked as usual, for example (5, V) x6.
" Stuff as you go.
" You can use any yarn but use a
smaller hook than suggested to avoid holes after filling.
