Details:
Worked in worsted weight yarn and a tight gauge, the resulting garment is warm and cozy. The Mesh (aka Filet) stitch is incorporated to add drape to the fabric, and the results are tiny jewel like openings in the otherwise sturdy fabric.

Coordinating Scarf Pattern: Jeweled Scarf

Difficulty Level: Intermediate (Requires Special Stitch, Increasing, and Working in the Round.)

Adult Sizes: Small (21”), Medium (22”), Large (23”), or Extra Large (24”)
To determine head size, measure the circumference of the widest part of the head. As a rule of thumb, most women will wear a Medium, and most men will wear a Large.

Gauge: 5 stitches x 5 rows = 1” x 1” (Single Crochet)
