Materials

  • 861-149 Lion Brand Vanna's Glamour Yarn: Moonstone - 2 Balls
  • Lion Brand Crochet Hook - Size F-5
  • Large-Eye Blunt Needles (Set of 6)
  • Sewing needle and thread
  • One magnetic purse closure

 

Abbreviations:
beg = begin(s)(ning)
rem = remain(s)(ing)
rep = repeat(s)(ing)
sc = single crochet
sl st = slip stitch
st(s) = stitch(es)

 

Gauge: 1 ripple = 3 1/2 in. (9 cm). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you less stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook.
