- 3mm crochet hook
- 5mm safety eyes

and abbreviations used:
(I am from England but use US crochet
terms)
- MC - Magic circle/ring (sc unless otherwise specified)

- Inc - Increase stitch (2 single crochets into one stitch)
- Dec - Decrease stitch (single crochet 2 stitches together)

Other things to note....
- This is worked in continuous rounds. It is helpful to use a stitch
marker to keep track.

stitch count for that round.

- Use invisible decreases for a neater finished product.
- Stitches in [ ] are worked
into one stitch.
