1 Skein super bulky (6) velvet yarn for the main color & another skein for your secondary color. I used Himalaya Dolphin Baby. Light gray and White and I love it!!

I am in love with it so expect that the next few patterns are going to be with velvet yarn 😀

Special stitches:

Front post hdc

Yarn over. From the front of the work, insert the hook from right to left. Yarn over and pull a loop so that you have three loops on your hook. Again yarn over and pull through the three loops.Another way to think about it is you are inserting your hook from front to back. Then back to the front and working the stitch as normal.

Back post hdc

Yarn over, then from the back of the work, insert the hook from right to left around the post of the next stitch. Again yarn over and pull a loop through so that you have three loops on your hook. Yarn over and pull through the three loops. For this post stitch, you insert your hook from back to front, then to the back and complete the stitch.
