Stoma Bib

 

 
  Cast on 3" worth of stitches in soft cotton and either work in a non-curling stitch such as garter, seed, or moss, or work in stockinette stitch with a garter stitch border.
  Increase at each end of every other row until 6" wide and work even until 5" from beginning.
  Shape as for the neck of a pullover by working a quarter of the stitches, binding off one half of the stitches, then shaping the final one quarter by decreasing on the neck edge every other row until one stitch remains; then work other side to match.
  Use I-cord to edge the top and form ties, or even quicker, make a 15" crocheted chain, continue by working single crochet across the neck edge, and then crochet another 15" chain. Use these pieces as a way to try out new patterns, either lace, cable, or multi colored. These are for men, women, and children, so use your creativity!
Please remember that there is plenty of yarn free for use in any community service project, and it is out at all of our meetings.
