Pattern of Main Fabric

    Note: 

    1. The crocheting method at the beginning and ending positions is special. For some rounds, when starting with a double crochet, you need to work into the front loop only of the slip stitch from the previous round. Please refer to the video demonstration for details. 

    2. Except for the first round and the first single crochet of each round, all other single crochets are worked into the back loop only of the previous round, and all double crochets are worked into the front loop of the previous round. 

    3. The width after the first 20 rounds is approximately 19 cm. 

    4. In the second-to-last round, make 1 chain stitch at each corner. In the final round, the slip stitches are worked into the back loops of the previous round. 

    5. After completing the main piece, do not cut the yarn at the end of the third-to-last round.

    PART2 Button Loops and ButtonsB​ 23' 30'' ​

    First, on the inside of each side of the main fabric piece, crochet a button loop on approximately the right half, and then sew a button on the left half. Among the four corners, crochet button loops on three of them, and sew the button on the remaining corner. For details, please refer to the video demonstration.
