Sc in next 5, hdc, 2hdc, hdc, 2hdc, hdc, sc in next 5, slip stitch to the bottom slip stitch of top curve

Ch 1 and turn (WS)

Skip slip stitch and then sc in sc and in the next 4.

Skip 2, hdc in next two, sc in next two, and slip stitch in last stitches.

Don’t chain, but turn. (RS)

Skip 1^st slip stitch and then:

Slip stitch in next 3, sc in next 16, slip stitch, and FO with small tail to sew the little gap between the top curve and the bottom curve closed.

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.
