Part of a combo set with hat and leg warmers.

The thumb row indicates to ch 4 for the opening but this may be too small for most wearers. After completing the ch 4 and next shell, try on the piece to see if the opening is too tight. If it is, undo the shell and increase the thumb opening ch to 9 ch (loose chs).

Then, for round 14, change to the following:

Ch 3, dc in next dc, skip firs ch, dc in next 2 ch, ch 1, skip next ch, dc in next 2 ch, ch 1, skip next ch, dc in next 2 ch, skip last ch, shell in next shell, continue in pattern around, fasten off.
