Letter D

Chain 27

Join chain to form a circle- being careful not to twist.

Chain 1 and SC in same space and SC in each stitch around circle (27)

Join.  Chain 1 and SC in same space and next 14 stitches.

(skip 2, 5 dc in next sc) 3x, skip 2, 1 sc in next.  Join with a slip stitch.

SC in NEXT stitch and then sc in the next 8 stitches.

HDC in next

Chain 12.  DC in 4th chain from hook, DC in next 8 stitches, Slip stitch in stitch JUST AFTER the one your chain 12 comes out of. (there should be 3 sc between your hook and the shell now)

SC in next 18 stitches

2 sc in each of next 2 sc (4), 2 hdc in each of next 2 stitches (4), chain 4 and then slip stitch back into the same stitch as your chain 4.

DC in next 8 on the letter.  DC in the next 6 on upper chain (this will be on the bottom of your chain spaces)

HDC in next 2 and then sc in the next stitch.  Slip stitch in the top of upper letter and FO. 

 

The last step to these letters is steam blocking.  This step is so important.  I can’t stress how important and what kind of difference this step makes.  I did a post about steam blocking HERE in relation to a different project, but the idea is the same.  This step takes your letter up a notch!  It makes is lay flat, look professional, soften a little and just all around look so much better.
