Note: I used chainless starting dc for every first dc of each row/ round instead of ch 3. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2, dc into the same stitch ( counted as 1st dc). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc into 1st stitch for every first dc of each row/ round, so just choose your best technique 🙂

Special stitch used:

3×3 fptr left cross: ( worked over 6 sts )

skip 3 sts, fptr around each of next 3 sts, working in front of the fptr just made, fptr around each of 3 skipped sts. 

This crochet Snuggly Cardi pattern fits size XL ( chest size: 40 to 42 inches )

Skill level: Intermediate

Gauge:  7 double crochet stitches x  4 rows = approximately 2 inches ( with materials indicated )
