## Abbreviations used

| In the pattern | US abbreviation | Stitch name (US) | UK abbreviation | What it is |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| sc | sc | Single crochet | dc |  |
| hdc | hdc | Half double crochet | htr |  |

The UK column is the abbreviation a UK-notation reader would use for the SAME stitch. Where it differs from the US one, following the pattern with UK meanings produces the wrong stitch height.

## How the notation reads

- `(sc, inc) x6` — repeat what is in the brackets 6 times — also written 6x (sc, inc)
- `sc around` — one sc into every stitch of the round below, as many as that round has — also written sc in each st around, and sc across on a row
- `FLO / BLO` — work into the front / back loop only, leaving the other loop free
