Instructions
Bottom Ribbing - Working in rows
ch 13
                                                                                                3/4
Row 1: SC in the second ch from the hook and SC across (12). Turn
Row 2-60: ch 1, working in BLO, SC across (12). Turn.
When you finish the ribbed band, fold it so that Row 1 and 60 are on top of one another.
Working through the back loop of Row 60 and the front loop of Row 1, seam the two rows
together by slip stitching across. Do not cut your yarn. Continue on to work in rounds along
the “raw” edge of ribbed band.
