Pattern
Ch 5. Draw up a loop in each chain and keep them on the hook.
Whilst holding onto the base of the loops, (particularly the last two), gently draw the tail towards the first loop.
Draw up a loop using this tail in each of the five loops.
Continue until you have the desired length
Turn work over and slip loops onto another hook ( or pen).
Holding the slipped loops in front, drop one loop, insert original hook into that loop and then into the corresponding chain at beginning of work. Draw up a loop and pull thru all. Repeat process for remaining 4 loops. Tie off and weave in ends. Attach a bow if desired.
