This is a super simple pattern designed for knitters who have never worked in the round before. I have an accompanying step-by-step free video tutorial on youtube that will walk you through every step of the project. The pattern does assume you know how to cast on and work both a knit and a purl stitch. I have tutorials for each of those as well. Watch the video here.

SIZING
