Diaper Cover

Materials:
G/4.00 mm hook
H/5.00 mm hook
Yarn of Choice (WW-4ply, ie: redheart, bernat, caron, etc)( in picture I used Caron)
Colors of Choice (in picture I used medium gray and pink)
Buttons of choice (will need to fit through the waistband trc) (up to 28 mm / 1 hdc-inch)

Abbreviations:
ch – chain
st – stitch
slst – slip stitch
sc – single crochet
hdc – half double crochet
trc – treble (triple) crochet
hdc-hdc-inc – hdc-increase (half double crochet 2 stitches in the same stitch)

f/o – fasten off

Notes:
Beginning chains do not count as a stitch
Row 2 of trc will be your button holes. The nice thing about doing the whole row this way,
is because it makes it very adjustable around the waist.
