Finished Size 31 ⁄2" wide. Length of belt is adjustable, based on desired waist circumference.Yarn Mission Falls 1824 Wool (100% superwash merino; 85 yd [78 m]/13 ⁄4 oz [50 g]; ): #008 earth (MC), 2 skeins; #028 pistachio (CC), 1 skein. Yarn distributed by CNS Yarns.Hook Size H/8 (5 mm). Adjust hook size if necessary to obtain the correct gauge.Notions Yarn needle.Gauge 8 sts and 9 rows = 2" in sc.Skill Level Beginner.

NotesTake the time to check gauge. To ensure a custom fit, measure your

waist at the smallest part, subtract 2", multiply by 4, the number of sts per inch you achieve working sc back lp only. This gives you the number of stitches to chain. Example: For a 31" waist: 29" × 4 st = 116 ch.

BeltWith MC, ch number derived from calculations in Notes.Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across, turn.Row 2: Ch 1, sc back lp only in each of first 2 sc, ch 2, sk next 2 sc,

sc blo in next sc, sc blo in each sc to last 4 sc, ch 2, sk next 2 sc, sc blo in each of last 2 sc, turn.

Test the length of the belt by wrapping it around your waist.

TieWith CC, ch 125 (or to desired length).Row 1: Sl st in each ch across. Fasten off.

FinishingSew flowers to RS of each end of belt; if desired, embroider 3 French knots (see below) and 3 ch sts (see below) around each flower. Lace the tie through eyelets made on each end of the belt.

INSPIRED BY THE WIDE VARIETY OF OVERSIZE BELTS IN STORES and on the runway, designer Christina Marie Potter wanted to create a version that was more comfortable: a belt with the give and stretch that yarn allows. The lace-up closure is a stylish detail that provides a custom fit. Contrasting embroidery is an optional final touch.

d e s i g n b y C H R I S T I N A M A R I E P O T T E RWide Boho Belt

CHRISTINA MARIE POTTER learned to crochet when she was ten. She has a bachelor’s degree in Fashion from Stephens College. In addition to designing patterns, she teaches classes in St. Louis, Missouri, where she lives with her husband and daughter. See more of her work at www.christinamariepotter.com.

French Knot

Bring needle out of background from back to front, wrap yarn around needle one to three times, and use thumb to hold in place while pulling needle through wraps into background a short distance from where it came out.

BRENDA K. B. ANDERSON cooks, crochets, and belly dances. She used to knit, and she probably still would if she could figure out how to let go of her crochet hook. She lives in a little house in Saint Paul with her ridiculously good-looking husband and their hairy baby, Mr. Kittypants.

DESIGNER TIP

Marigold HeadbandCarry unused color of yarn up one end of the project to avoid having to weave in too many ends. You can adjust the size of the headband by adding or subtracting single crochets from the row-ends. This project can be worked in any weight of yarn. Try working it in worsted weight, with fewer single crochets and fewer rows, for a cozy earwarmer.
