General instructions:
Work each project following the corresponding CC and
instructions. For the meaning of crochet and knitting symbols,
see the keys. Stitches marked over ch are to be worked
around the ch-arch.
Rounds which are not shown entirely in the CC should be
completed in pattern. Arrows in the CC mark points where
two or more crocheted motifs are joined or indicate the
direction of work. Changes from standard crochet or knitting
procedure are explained in the instruction texts. Otherwise,
work following the CC, which are labeled with numbers and
letters as given in the instructions.
Knitting needles and crochet hooks:
The proper size of knitting needles or crochet hook depends
on how tightly or loosely tou knit or crochet. For this reason,
you should always first make a 12 x 12 cm (4 3/4 x 4 3/4
inches) swatch, using the given yarn and needle or hook size.
Compare your swatch with the tension given in the instructions
for your model. If your swatch is smaller than the given
tension, use larger knitting needles or crochet hook. If your
swatch is larger, use smaller needles or hook.
Finishing:
After crocheting, block each piece on a dry surface preferably on a gridded interfacing, and with rust-proof pins

piece until it has dried completely.
To make sure your work looks like our original, use the Coats

this reason, we recommend washing fabrics before cutting
them as given in the instructions. The given measurements
apply to washed fabric. Allow for shrinkage when purchasing
fabric.
The measurement of all fabric pieces include 1 cm (3/8 inch)
seam allowances.

Crochet individual flowers, following the crochet chart.

The holes in the pearls may be too small or slightly blocked.
Enlarge or clear the holes with a size 1.25 mm (US 8) crochet
hook or an embroidery needle to make the pearls easier to
thread.
