Materials: ( I used )
4mm crochet hook
Light weight/ DK yarn: white ( as color A ), grey ( as color B ) ( about 300 gr for the sample – size L/ 100 gr or 328 yds per skein )
Yarn needle
Scissors
Note: I used chainless starting dc for every first dc of each row/ round instead of ch 3. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2, dc into same stitch ( counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc into 1st stitch for every first dc of each row/ round, so choose your best technique
