      What size does your yarn say on the band and you can do this!!!! I suggest slowing down the run speed of the video (if you haven’t) and working it alongside the written pattern. If you have the crochet basics you can do this. It is mostly double crochet and slip stitching. Don’t give up! 😊

I am now at row 7 and it seems like I’m keeping up but to double check: when making a XL will I have to add more increases?Are the numbers in the parentheses for the amount of dc’s corresponding to each size?
