Now 5 dc around the next dc post (this is the dc post from the previous row, which was the first ch 3 which served as the first dc of row 1.



Dc around in next 13 …stitches slip stitch in first dc. . 36 dc total.

Row 3.  Ch 3 serves as first dc. Dc around slip stitch in top of first dc ..36 dc total

Row 4.   Repeat Row 3 …then ch 3 and the end to set up for next row.

Row 5. Fold booty in half divide stitches place marker …(should be 18 stitches on each side then divided into 9 ) . Go back to Ch 3 and Dc to marker Ch 2. Dc across into the opposite stitch with the marker. Dc around to initial Ch 3 Slip stitch to join.

Row 8. Insert the hook into the space between the instep and first dc of second half of body. Pull up a working loop with the working yarn Ch 1
