Special Technique
Adjustable-ring method = Wrap yarn into a ring, ensuring that the tail falls behind the working yarn. Grip ring and tail firmly between middle finger and thumb. Insert hook through center of ring, yarn over (with working yarn) and draw up a loop. Work stitches of first round in the ring. After the first round of stitches is worked, pull gently, but firmly, on tail to tighten ring.

NOTES
1. Rug is worked in joined rounds with right side facing at all times.
2. Yarn is too thick to thread through a standard yarn needle. Weave in ends with small crochet hook or large eyed needle used with plastic canvas projects.
3. Rug is intended to be used over carpet. If placed on a hardwood floor, designer recommends applying non-skid rug backing.
