Insert hook through loop on left prong, draw rear yarn through loop, making a single crochet stitch at the knot in the center, * withdraw hook, turn fork one-half turn to the left, replace hook, then insert through loop at the left side of the fork, pick up rear yarn and pull through loop completing an s c, repeat from * until there are 595 loops on each side, cut yarn. Work 2nd section having 513 loops, cut yarn. Work 3rd section having 349 loops, cut yarn. Work 4th section having 389 loops, cut yarn. Work 5th section having 1269 loops, cut yarn.
