Notes
1. Make
sure
you
read
through
the
whole
pattern
before
starting
it
to
make
sure
you
understand
J
please
feel
comfortable
to
contact
me
for
any
questions.
2. The
same
pattern
is
used
for
different
sized
appliques.
The
bigger
hook
number
the
thicker
the
yarn
or
vice
versa
the
applique
will
be.
3. Mulan’s
head
is
worked
in
a
continuous
round,
do
not
join
or
turn
unless
otherwise
stated.
4. We
will
be
using
the
sliding
loop
technique
aka
slipknot
for
circle
ring
aka
magic
ring.
Next
you
will
find
a
quick
tutorial
on
how
it
works.
Instructions
For
SLIDING
LOOP
With
the
long
side
of
the
yarn
in
the
palm
of
your
hand,
wind
yarn
around
index
finger
twice.
Now for the fun part! You will see you have Picture 1 -‐ Sliding Loop
TWO
circles
and
a
tail
of
yarn
hanging,
what
you
want
to
do
is
first
make
sure
which
of
the
two
circles
moves
when
being
pulled,
then
sc
your
stitches
and
then
FIRST
completely
pull
that
moved
circle
(which
makes
the
other
circle
disappear)
and
then
PULL
the
tail
of
yarn
and
see
how
the
magic
is
done!
A
perfect
circle
is
made!
Mulan’s Head
COLOR A.
*Notice:
Mulan’s
head
is
worked
in
a
continuous

I
recommend
to
use
a
stitch
marker
on
the
first
sc
of
the
second
round,
or
string
a
different
color
of
yarn
there
so
you
can
remember
when
you
finished
working
a
round.
