** Bow (all sizes) **
BOW with contrasting color; 4.0mm (G)
ch33, sl st into the 1st st to form a ring
Rnd 1: ch2, hdc in each ch around, sl st into 1st st (33)
Rnd 2: ch1, sc in each st around, sl st into 1st st (33)
Rnd 3-4: repeat rounds 1 and 2 (33)
Rnd 5: repeat round 1 (33)
You can make the bow bigger by chaining more stitches in the beginning and adding more rounds.
F/O and weave in all ends. With a strand of yarn about 8" long wrap it several times through the middle of the bow and secure with a knot. Weave in ends.
ASSEMBLE
I recommend pinning the pieces in place before sewing them to make sure you have them in the position you like best. (Most people like to use the yarn in the end from the finish pieces to sew them in place but I personally like to use matching thread).
Sew the bow either on the left or right side between the rounds where we did the color change on the beanie.
