0:24
this project i'm going to be using 5.0 mm oak and then decay with yarn i'm doubling this yarn here
0:30
to make up for decay with yarn so without further ado let's get started i'm going to be starting
0:36
with a slip knot and then i'll chain two
0:46
so for one I'm going to skip this name the first chain from the hook and then
0:55
single crochet did the second chain from the hook just as a single crochet so next I'm going
1:05
to chain one it's on you make three single crochet into the single crochet down meet
1:14
from the previous row. 1, 2, and the last one 3
1:28
So moving on to 3 now, I'm going to chain 1, make 2 single crochets into the
1:38
first stitch one single crochet into the second stitch two single crochets into the last stitch
2:00
so in all we have five single crochet on row three so so for four chain one turn two single crochet into the first stitch one and two
2:22
one single crochet into all stitches I want to get to the last stitch and make two single crochets into the last stitch so
2:38
basically we're going to be increasing into the first and the last stitch of each row
2:45
so chain one turn four or five make two single crochets into the first stitch
3:03
and then we'll make two single crochet into the last stitch so just keep increasing like this
3:27
we get to row 33. just go ahead and keep increasing into the first and the last stitch of each row
3:35
and i'll join you on row 33. at the end of row 33 you have a total of 65 stitches
3:42
so i'll join you when i get to row 33. so i've made it to row 33 and i have 65 stitches
3:49
so moving on to the next row which is row 34 chain one turn i not going to make any increases again so I just going to make one single crochet into each stitch across
4:01
So at the end of row 34, we still have 65 stitches
4:05
So just go ahead and make a single crochet into each stitch across
4:09
Now join you at the end of the row. I've made it to the end of row 34, and I have 65 stitches
4:17
So I'm just going to chain one and turn and keep making one single crochet into each stitch across
4:24
So I'm basically going to repeat row 34. So for row 35 to row 43, I'm going to repeat row 34
4:32
I'm just going to make one single crochet into each stitch across. And I'm still going to have 65 stitches at the end of each row
4:39
So just go ahead and make a single crochet into each stitch across
4:43
And I'll join you at the end of row 43. i've made it to row 43 this is what the project looks like so far so i i marked the middle stitch
4:56
remember i have 65 stitches so this is the 33rd stitch i'm going to start reducing from this row
5:02
so i these are going to start dividing that's why i marked the middle stitch so to start with 44 i'm
5:09
to chain one turn same crochet two together so i'm reducing a stitch at the beginning of the row here
5:20
then we'll make single crochet into the next 28 stitches so just guide and single crochet into the next 20 stitches i will join you when i'm sure with that
5:33
so i've made 28 single crochets after the single crochet two together
5:37
so i have three i have two stitches before the marked stitch so i'm going to make a single crochet
5:43
three together at this point so i'm going to go into the next stitch i'll start my single crochet
5:48
three together and i'll finish it into the marked stitch so
6:00

8:18
and continue this other half so to continue i'm going to reattach my yarn to the middle stitch here so i'll attach my yarn with a slip knot
8:30
into the middle stitch the one that we ended our single crochet two and three together in
8:43
i'm going to start from that stitch the third stitch the middle stitch and start with the
8:49
single crochet three together i'm doing this so that the the stitches are facing the same direction
8:56
so chain one to secure and then i'll start my single crochet three together from that stitch
9:03
go into the next stitch and into the third one and finish my single crochet three together
9:12

to finish the row so i'm about to complete the row of may 20th single crochets i'm going to end the
9:33
row with single crochet two together so moving on to row 45 now chain one turn and we'll just
9:44
repeat what we did on the order of we'll start each row with single crochet two together
9:50
make a single crochet into each stitch across and then we end the row with single crochet two
9:56
together so just go ahead and repeat what you did on the other side and i will join you on row 56
10:07
so i made it to row 56 so moving on to 57 chain one turn single crochet three together
10:20
and make another single crochet three together so we have made six stitches into two stitches we have reduced four stitches
10:31
so instead of changing one and cutting my yarn like i did on the other end
10:38
i'm going to start the strap now so i'm going to chain 50
10:42
one two three so go ahead and chain 50 and i'll join you when i'm through with my chains
10:50
so I've chained 50 I'm going to skip the first chain from the hook and single
10:58
crochet into the second chain from the hook and single crochet into each chain
11:04
across so I'm going to have 49 single crochets for our strap so just go ahead
11:10
and finish this set of single crochets I will join you at the end of the strap
11:17
so i've made 49 single crochets and i'm back to where we started our strap so i'm going to
11:25
make a slip stitch to the second stitch here from row 57 make a slip stitch into the
11:31
stitch so that our straps you can see that it's well attached now so then we'll continue on the
11:40
side i going to keep making single crochets on the side of each row to guess where we going to make our side straps Now if you would like to make double straps just to make it more stodier to
11:53
tie around the back, you can get to row 44, chain 70, then skip a chain and make 69 single crochet
12:02
and then slip stitch to row 43. Well I'm going to be making a single strap so I'm going to be doing
12:08
that on row 35 and 34. so just continue making single crochet on each on the side of each row
12:16
to get to row 35 and if you would like to make double straps you can make your first strap on row
12:23
40 44 and 43 but i will join you when i get to the side of row 35. so i've gotten to the side of
12:33
row 35. Row 35 is the second row that um they were they started increasing so we stopped increasing on
12:41
row 34 and row 35 is the second row so just so just so that you can you can easily relocate to row 35
12:49
so now that we are out row 35 i'm going to chain 17 for the back strap the strap i'm going to tie
12:57
around our back so go ahead and chain 70 skip the first chain and then single crochet
13:05
back down that's 69 single crochet now join you when i'm sure it's my 69 single crochets
13:12
so i've made 69 single crochets so i'm going to slip stitch to the side of row 34
13:22
then continue making single crochets on the side of each row So continue with your single crochets inside of each row and I will join you later
13:37
So once you've made your single crochet to the first row of the pattern, you're going
13:43
to make two single crochets into that first row. and so then you continue making single crochets on the side of each row to get to row 34 where
14:02
we start our other back strap so continue with your single crochets and i'll join you at this
14:08
point i've made it inside of row 34 i'm going to make 70 chains and then skip the first chain
14:16
then make six nine single crochets and then slip stitch to the side of row 35 here then
14:22
continue making single crochet on the side of each row now if you have made double crochet and
14:27
double straps on this side remember you are going to make the other strap here too on row 43 and
14:33
row 44 but if you have made just one strap like mine after you've made the strap here you're just
14:38
going to continue with single crochet on the side of each row till you get to the top here so then
14:43
you slip stitch into this first stitch here, chain 50, skip the first stitch and then single crochet
14:50
make 49 single crochets and then slip stitch into this second stitch here. Then you make single
14:56
crochets on the side of each row to get to the point where you started the strap. So I'll just
15:03
go ahead and do mine off camera and I'll come back to show you what the final piece looks like. So here is what the final piece looks like
15:10
It fits bust 32-38 inches. You can find the free written pattern on my blog
