STITCH GUIDE (US Terms):

• rnd - round

NOTES:
Instructions incorporate my method for an invisible seam. This generally works by making the FIRST stitch of the round LAST, working in front of the initial build-up chain of the round. This is explained in the pattern. But you can certainly join your rounds traditionally instead. :)

Camel stitch looks best when worked in continuous rounds, otherwise the joins look a little wonky. How to do this is noted in the pattern.

Size 0-6 month is sized to fit an older newborn through approximately 6 months, so if you are making this to fit that range (or a newborn with a large head) I would make this size instead of newborn.
