Finished Size: 8” tall X 12” long

PLEASE NOTE SPECIAL STITCHES: PTH = Pop Tab Hdc.  To work one you make a normal hdc, but before finishing the stitch and while you have 3 lps on your hook, you slide a pop tab onto the hook, pull through, yo and finish the stitch.  DPTH = Double Pop Tab Hdc.  You make it just as you do a PTH except before you slid a new pop tab on your hook, you pick of the unworked opening from a pop tab in a previous row, then add the new pop tab and finish the stitch. FINPTH = Finish Pop Tab Hdc.  This stitch is just like a DPTH in that you pick up the pop tab from a previous row, but inside of adding another pop tab you finish the stitch.
