PATTERN AND SIZING NOTES
– The stitch count is given in parentheses ( ) at the end of each row – This project is made as one piece and seamed down the under-side of the arm and down the sides (see image below).
– The ‘faux bobble’ is made by alternating single crochet and triple crochet in a row so that the single crochet pulls the triple crochet down and pops it out
– It’s really important that, in the rows where you’re creating the faux bobble, you keep the single crochets very tight to make the fake bobble pop out
– Since this is made as one piece and seamed, you will be switching between two hook sizes throughout the project. In the chart below, all the ribbed portions are done in the 4mm hook and all the remaining is done in the 6mm hook.
