Market Bag
Lion Brandฎ Cotton-Ease®
GAUGE:
15 dc + 10 rnds = 4 in. [10 cm] working back and forth in sps between dc. 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 fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION:
dc2tog (dc dec) Yo, insert hook
in sp between next 2 sts and draw up a
loop, yo and draw through 2 loops. Yo,
insert hook in next sp and draw up a
loop. Yo, draw through 2 loops, yo and
draw through all loops on hook.

Work dcs into sps between sts, rather than into sts.
