Body
Row 4
Find the middle of your work from Row 3. Move 3 stitches to the right – this is where you’d start the next row. Make a slip knot.
CH 3 (counts as 1st DC), DC into the same stitch.
2 DC into the next ST, repeat between **5 times. (14 AD)
Row 5
CH 3, skip 1st DC stitch, DC+CH1+DC (V-ST) into the space between DC stitches from the previous row, repeat 6 times, DC into the turning CH. (7 V-STs)
Row 6
This row will be a row of DOUBLE V-Stitches, which will add more dimension to the angel’s body.
CH 3, skip 1st DC stitch, 2DC+CH2+2DC (DOUBLE V-ST) into the CH space, repeat 6 times, DC into the turning CH. (7 DOUBLE V-STs)
Row 7
CH 3, skip 1st DC stitch, DC into the next stitch, 2DC+CH1+2DC (DOUBLE V-ST) into CH space, DC into the next stitch, repeat 6 times, DC into the turning CH. (7 TRIPLE V-STs)
Finally, CH 2, HDC into the back loop only (BLO) to add the finishing touch to the angel’s gown. Continue with HDC all around. Next, SL ST ‘the skirt’ together to make your angel stand. Cut off the yarn, fasten it off, and use a tapestry needle to weave in all the yarn ends.
