Helpful Hints and General Directions
HOW TO DETERMINE SIZE TO MAKE: Directions are based on standard
measurements listed below. Allowance has been made to size, stitch, yarn
and style of garment for best results. These are general body
measurements and may vary with each individual.
SIZE 10 12 14 16
BUST 32½″ 34″ 36″ 38″
WAIST 24″ 25½″ 27″ 29″
HIP 34½″ 36″ 38″ 40″
Consult chart to determine size to make not overlooking the fact that
these are body measurements and not measurements of finished garment.
HOOKS, TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS:
Crochet Hooks are made in steel, plastic and aluminum. Steel crochet
hooks range in size from 00 the largest to size 14 the smallest.
Aluminum crochet hooks range in size from C through K and plastic
crochet hooks come in the following sizes: OD, 1-2E, 3-4F, 5G, 6H, 8I,
9J. The size of needle affects the gauge and therefore the measurements
of the finished garment. It also affects the texture of the work. A
needle that is too fine for the yarn makes the garment stiff and a
needle that is too coarse makes the garment stretchy.
Tapestry Needles are large-eyed blunt pointed needles used for sewing
garments tog or embroidery.
An asterisk (*) indicates that instructions immediately following are to
be repeated the given number of times, in addition to the original.
“Repeat from * 4 times” means 5 times in all.
Even means that a row or rnd is to be worked without increasing or
decreasing.
Work means to continue in same stitch you have been working.
Directions in parentheses are repeated as often as specified. “(Ch 3, sc
in next sp of petal) 3 times” means whatever is enclosed in parentheses
is to be repeated for 3 times in all.
CROCHETING ABBREVIATIONS:
ch—chain, sc—single crochet, dc—double crochet, sdc—short double
crochet, hdc—half double crochet, trc—treble crochet, sl st—slip stitch,
dec—decrease, inc—increase, st—stitch, tog—together, rnd—round,
beg—beginning, sp—space.
TO MAKE DAISIES:
These directions can be used for the HERO Crazy Daisy Winder and for the
HERO King Size Crazy Daisy Winder.
A: Hold winder in left hand with flat side in palm of hand. Turn knob to
release spokes (see illustration A).
B: Turn winder over with knob underneath and flat side with spokes
extended facing you. Hold winder in left hand. With left thumb hold yarn
at center leaving end to extend about 1″; with right hand, pass yarn
from left to right around spoke No. 1; then across center from right to
left around spoke No. 2 directly opposite. Wrap around these 2 spokes
once more in the same manner, or as many times as desired (the number of
wraps depends upon the thickness of the yarn you will be using). Bring
yarn across center and wind from left to right around spoke No. 3; then
across center from right to left around spoke No. 4. Wrap around these 2
spokes once more, or as many times as you wrapped around spoke 1 and 2.
Bring yarn across center and wind from left to right around spoke No. 5;
then across center and from right to left around spoke No. 6. Wrap
around these 2 spokes once more or as many times as you wrapped around
spoke 1 and 2. Continue in this manner to wrap yarn around 2 spokes
directly opposite each other and then passing onto the next 2 spokes
until all spokes are wrapped, ending with spoke No. 12. Bring yarn
across center and cut leaving 1″ extended beyond center (see
illustration B). Do not remove from winder.
[Illustration: A]
[Illustration: B]
C: Center: Thread tapestry needle with yarn. The side facing you will be
the wrong side of the daisy. Fasten at center of wrong side as for
embroidery. Insert needle under 4 petals and draw yarn through; bring
yarn back over last 3 of the 4 petals; insert needle under these 3
petals plus 1 more, making 4 petals in all; draw yarn through. Continue
in this manner to bring yarn back 3 petals and then draw it under 4
petals each time until you have made 13 sts. Be sure to have 13 sts or
center will be incomplete. As the center sts are worked, weave around
the starting end of daisy for a few sts to fasten it securely. Fasten on
wrong side. Cut ends (see illustration C). Turn knob to draw in spokes
and release daisy.
D. Right side of daisy.
