Detailed Instructions

Chain Foundation:

• • Start with a 6mm hook and make a slip knot.

• • Create a chain (ch) that, when stretched, fits around the largest part of your hips. Add 3 more chains.

Joining the Round:

• • Carefully join the chain into a round with a slip stitch (sl st), ensuring it’s not twisted.

Switch Hook Size:

• • Switch to a 5mm hook.

First Round (Double Crochet):

• • Chain 2, and double crochet (dc) into each chain around.
  • Join with a slip stitch at the end.

Subsequent Rounds (Double Crochet):

• • Chain 2, turn work, and dc into each stitch.
  • Repeat until desired length.

Adding the Slit from Row 11:

• • Continue working in rows instead of the round to create an opening.
  • Dc into each stitch across until the end of the row.
  • Chain 2 at the end, turn, and repeat.

Decreasing for Slit:

• • From Row 16–23, decrease one stitch at the beginning of each row.

Adding a Different Color for the Last Row (Optional):

• • Change the yarn and dc across for an enhanced edge.

Lace-Up Chain:

• • Make a long chain to fit around your waist, approximately twice the length of your waist measurement.

• • Weave this chain in the waistband to create a hidden drawstring.

• • Make another long chain to lace up the slit, crossing it like you would lace shoelaces.

Additional Notes

• Measure carefully to ensure a perfect fit.
• Be cautious when joining chains to keep rounds straight.
• Relaxed tension works best for even stitches.
