Shell Angel

 

Materials
DK yarn (about 15g, scrap sparkly thread/yarn),  25mm (1in) plastic curtain ring, 4.00mm hook.
 
Notes
Front Loops:
  these are the loops closest to you when working into a st, whether the front or the back of the stitch is facing you.
If you use a different sized ring you may need to adjust the amount of stitches worked into it.  Just remember to do the hanging loop half way around.
