Making the Band

*repeat row 2 until you have 62 rows total*

Joining the Band

Slip stitch through the back of your last st and the front of the starting chain to form a ring with the band. Continue to slip stitch in each stitch in the starting chain to join the band for a total of 6 slip stitches. When your band is joined chain 1. sc across the entire length of the top band increasing the stitch count evenly around until you reach 70 stitches.
