Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky cotton yarn
• Hook: Size N/P (10 mm) crochet hook
• Scissors: For cutting yarn
• Tapestry needle: For weaving in ends
• Towel: A kitchen towel to attach your topper to

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Begin with a magic ring: Create a magic ring by wrapping the yarn around your fingers and pulling a loop through. This will be the starting point for your crochet.
2. Round 1: Chain 1 (Ch 1), then work 6 single crochets (sc) into the magic ring. To close the round, slip stitch (sl st) into the first single crochet you made. You should have a total of 6 stitches.
3. Round 2: Ch 1, then work 2 sc in each stitch around. Join the round with a sl st to the first sc. You will now have 12 stitches.
4. Round 3: Ch 1, then *sc in the next stitch, 2 sc in the next stitch; repeat from * around. Join the round with a sl st to the first sc. You should have 18 stitches at the end of this round.
5. Continue increasing: Keep increasing in this manner (1 sc in the next stitch, 2 sc in the next stitch) until the circle measures the desired width for the top of the towel. This will depend on the size of your towel, but typically 24-30 stitches should suffice.
6. Work even: After reaching the desired width, work even in single crochet for 2 more rounds without increasing. This will create a solid base for your towel topper.
7. Loop Closure: Chain 20, then sl st to the opposite side of the circle to form a loop. Fasten off your yarn and cut it, leaving a tail for weaving in later.
8. Weave in ends: Use your tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends from your project to give it a clean finish.
9. Attach to towel: Fold your kitchen towel in half and attach the bottom edge of the topper to the towel. You can sew it on using a needle and thread or crochet it directly onto the towel for a secure hold.

Congratulations! You’ve just completed your very own Chunky Crochet Towel Topper Set. This handmade piece will not only add a touch of charm to your kitchen but also serve a practical purpose. Enjoy your new creation!
