Pattern:
Ewrap cast on all 20 pegs in the roundRow 1 to 5 Ewrap knit.
Before row 6 On the fifth row place the stitch markers in between all 5 sets of 4 pegs. This will help you know what previous row you need to place back on the pegs on my Step 18 Below.
Row 6 work the Crocodile stitch (round one) using 4 pegs on each star point. (I had a little trouble with following alone with the video(here) and the written instructions(here). I had to figure it out in my way, that works for me, and this it. I also knew it was kinda like making a thumb for a mitten and a short row heel together.)
My Steps for the round Crocodile stitch:
Steps 1 to 18
Step 1: Ewrap knit pegs 1 to 4
Step 2: Wrap around the front of peg 4 and Ewrap knit pegs 4 to 1
