Worsted cotton yarn, 3.25 mm D hook

Cup base: (Color A)


Create a magic loop
Rd 1: in loop, ch 1, sc 6, sl st to join (7)
Rd 2: ch 1, sc 2 in each st, sl st to join (13)

Rd 4: ch 1, [sc 1, sc 2 in next, sc 1] repeat [] around, sl st to join (25)

Pull the loop through the slip stitch so it's sticking out of the back:
Remove hook from loop (being careful not to pull out the last slip stitch!)
From the back of the circle, insert hook through the same stitch as your slip stitch. (fig 1)
Use the hook to pull the loop through the stitch so both the loop and the tail are sticking out the back side.
FIG 1: From the back of the circle, insert hook
