7/2/15 Edited last line.  change in red.

MATERIALS:
2 skeins (39 yards each) Lion Brand Fancy Fur
US size N (9.0 mm) crochet hook
Tapestry needle

SIZE: Approximately 5 inches wide and 40 inches long.

NOTES:
1. Read instructions all the way through before beginning.
2. The beginning ch 3 counts as the first dc throughout. Start each row by skipping the first dc and end with dc in the turning chain.
3. Sometimes it is hard to see where to put your hook, when that happens you can use your fingers to feel where the hook goes. Another way to see where the hook goes is hold your work up and let the light shine through it.
4. The easiest method of joining the yarn is to hold ends from each ball together, tie an overhand knot. Then trim the ends about 3/8 inch long.
5. Before weaving in ends pull the slubs off the end you are going to weave in, they pull right off without unraveling the yarn.
