• Haylee Hand Towel

Materials:

• 20 (25, 35, 45, 60, 70, 85) Yards of Worsted Weight Yarn - I used Queensland Cotton Coastal in Azure and Malachite Green
• H8/5mm Crochet Hook
• Tapestry Needle

WeCrochet Dishie is a great yarn alternative, or a cotton/linen blend.

Time Spent:
I worked up the 7” size in just under 45 minutes.

Sizes:
4”, 5”, 6”, 7”, 8”, 9”, 10”

Gauge (Not Essential):
Measured in Pattern: 11 HDC = 3 1/8” Wide by 11 Rows = 4 1/8” Tall

Note: If you are measuring a swatch that is only 11 HDC wide by 11 rows tall, it will measure slightly larger. If working a swatch, I recommend working at least 15-18 stitches by 15-18 rows, but a swatch is not necessary for this project unless the finished size is essential to you.

When working the pattern, the border will add about 5/8” to the width and height. After working about 4 - 6 rows, you can measure the width, add in the border, and you will know if the finished size will be where you want it to be. The height is even easier to see as you can measure as you go, and stop when you get close to your desired height making sure to figure in the border.

Abbreviations (US Terms):

• SC - Single Crochet
• HDC - Half Double Crochet
