Work description

Points of design and knitting
(1) Knit with the general basic technique of crochet (ring stitches, fine knitting).
(2) In order to suppress the distortion of the tetra type, we knit by “reciprocating knitting of the ring”, but there is an explanatory material with a photo.

Intermediate level between beginner and intermediate (wrinkle, fine knitting, pull-out knitting)
* Understand how to read the knitting diagram. There is no explanation of the basic knitting method.
