crochet terminology

This pattern is written in UK and US crochet terminology. If the stitch names are different, they are shown as UK terminology (US terminology).

The stitch abbreviations that are used in this pattern are summarised in the table below.

 

number of stitches in each row

Throughout this crochet pattern, you’ll notice curvy brackets at the end of the row – this indicates the number of stitches in the row. For example, {44 sts} means that there are 44 stitches in the row. Counting the number of stitches at the end of each row is a good way to check that you haven’t gained or lost any stitches during the row.

Where the number of stitches differs with the different sizes the numbers are shown as Tiny Snuggles (Baby Snuggles, Little Snuggles, Single Snuggles, Lounge Snuggles) [Double Snuggles, Queen Snuggles, King Snuggles].

For example, 20 (22, 36, 36, 44) [54, 56, 70] means:

  • 20 stitches for the Tiny Snuggles size
  • 22 stitches for the Baby Snuggles size
  • 36 stitches for the Little Snuggles size
  • 36 stitches for the Single Snuggles size
  • 44 stitches for the Lounge Snuggles size
  • 54 stitches for the Double Snuggles size
  • 56 stitches for the Queen Snuggles size
  • 70 stitches for the King Snuggles size
