EQUIPMENT NOTES:
4mm hook used throughout Fastening Off and rejoining Yarn
Sewing needle You will achieve a much neater color change if you complete
rounds and fasten off the yarn, rather than joining mid stitch.
MEASUREMENT When fastening off a yarn at the end of a round, the slip stitch
Pre blocked – 19.5cm wide at widest point that you have made to join can look like a stitch when you are
working the following round. Make sure you count correctly

need to use a larger hook (4.5mm).
When joining, corner sts on the motifs need to be used more
than once.
