Size H hook (5.00mm)
Yarn needle (to weave in ends)

Finish Size: 8”h x 8”w inches

Different Stitches:

Double Crochet Popcorn Stitch (DCPST): 5 dc in next sc, take hook out of loop (from 5th dc), insert hook in first dc of 5 dc, and then back into dropped loop,, pull loop thru first dc.

Front Post Double Treble Crochet Stitch (FPDTCST): Yarn over 3 times, insert hook from front to back around post of specified st and then to the front going thru other side of st, yarn over, draw up a loop, [yarn over, draw through 2 loops] Do this 4 times.

Treble Crochet (TC): Yarn over 2 times insert hook in specified st, yarn over, pull up a loop, [yarn over, draw through 2 loops] Do this 3 times.

Incomplete Front Post Treble Crochet Stitch (IFPTCST): Yarn over 2 times, insert hook from front to back around post of specified st and then to the front going thru other side of st, yarn over, draw up a loop, [yarn over, draw through 2 loops] Do this 2 times

Notes:

IFPTCST its self does not count a stitch. Its combine with other IFPTCST’s to form a st.

IFPTCST is always worked around dc of Rnd 7.

Combined Front Post Treble Crochet St (CFPTST): At this point you should have 3 IFPTCST on your hook, yarn over, and draw through all 4 loops on hook. (This will combine the 3 IFPTCST together into 1 stitch) (CFTCST counts as 1 stitch)
