Additional Terms:
hdc in the 3rd loop = Look at the top of the stitch, and locate the sideways “V”, bend the stitch to look at the back, and you should see another “V”. You’ll be working into the back loop of that “V”, this is called the 3rd loop.

Additional Notes:
-Ch 1 at beginning of round does not count as a stitch.
-This pattern can be made longer or shorter based on your preference. After you have done a few rounds the stitch pattern should be fairly evident and you can add more rounds on the finger opening if needed.
-Pull your joins snug to minimize the seam.
