Simple White Crochet Circle

Materials:

Yarn: Cotton worsted weight yarn, 50 yards (color of your choice, white recommended for this project)
Hook: Size H (5.0 mm) crochet hook
Scissors
Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Gauge:

Gauge is not crucial for this project, but if you want to check it, work a square of 4 inches with double crochets. You should have about 12 stitches and 8 rows in 4 inches.

Abbreviations:

ch = chain
sl st = slip stitch
sc = single crochet
dc = double crochet

Instructions:

Foundation:

Start with a slip knot and chain 4. Join with a slip stitch to form a small circle.

Round 1:

Ch 3 (this counts as the first double crochet), then work 11 dc into the center of the circle. You should have a total of 12 dc in this round. Join with a sl st to the top of the beginning ch 3.

Round 2:

Ch 3, then in the same stitch, work 2 dc. This is your first increase.
In the next stitch, work 2 dc, and repeat for each stitch around. You will have 24 dc by the end of this round. Join with a sl st to the top of the beginning ch 3.

Round 3:

Ch 3, and then work 1 dc into the next stitch, followed by 2 dc into the next stitch. Repeat this pattern (1 dc, 2 dc) around the circle. You will have 36 dc total. Join with a sl st to the top of the beginning ch 3.

Final Round:

Ch 1, and then sc into each stitch around. This will help to finish the edges nicely and keep the circle flat. Join with a sl st to the first sc and fasten off.

Finishing:

Use the tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends.
If desired, block your circle by dampening it lightly and shaping it as needed. This will help it lay flat and enhance the stitch definition.

Optional Variations:

Change the yarn color for a different aesthetic.
Experiment with different hook sizes for a tighter or looser finish.
Add a decorative border using smaller stitches for a finishing touch.
