The pattern is written in English, using UK crochet terms. You will need to know how to chain, slip stitch, double crochet (known as single crochet in US crochet terms) and make a reverse double crochet, also known as crab stitch. I give a quick explanation on how to make the crab stitch in the pattern.

The pattern also has a few photos which shows you how to change colours and give you guidance on sewing the seam.
