    Very cute. I think I’m going to make it. Something different. I wear sunglasses and glasses for distance, so that’d be an awesome little gift to myself.

    Why aren’t you just single crocheting in each single crochet for the body?

    I found that it stopped the rows from spiraling. This way they stay in one place and form the “seam”.

    Is Row 37 correct? Row 36 leaves me with 5 sc. So when I’m doing Row 37 it requires 7 scs in the row below but I only have five scs…

    Eek, you are right. On my example I didn’t skip a stitch at each end of that row. I will correct that. It should read:

    37: sc in next sc, chain 3, skip next 2 sc, sc in next 2 sc, ch 1, turn (3 sc)
