Skills:
Knitting in the round, slip stitch knitting, crab stitch (crochet), I-cord.
Size:
Adult, child.

Needles and notions,
Adult US 8/5.0 mm needles for circular knitting and US H/5.0 mm crochet hook;
Child US 6/4.0 mm needles for circular knitting and US F/4.0 mm crochet hook; or sizes to achieve gauge. Stitch marker, tapestry needle, waste yarn (smooth cotton).
