We know the importance of a restful sleep, of a good rest, but there are people who have difficulty sleeping with light, that's why a crocheted woven sleeping mask, of original appearance and soft texture is the ideal solution. It is a useful and beautiful crochet project to make a gift.
How to knit a crochet mask?
Let's make two circles
1.- Let's start with the first circle. Start your circle with a slipknot. Then make 12 pillar rounds. Finish the round making a slip stitch.
2.- Then, work two pillar in each pillars until complete 24 pillars. Finish the round making a slip stitch.
3.- Work two pillars in the same pillar, then one pillar in the same pillar. We continue with two pillars in the same pillar, then one pillar in the same pillar, and so on until we complete the round. Finish the round making a slip stitch.
4.- Next, work two pillars in each pillar, then two pillars in the same pillar. We continue with two pillars in each pillar and then two pillars in the same pillar, and so on until we complete the round. Finish the round making a slip stitch. Make the second circle, following steps 1 to 4.
5.- If it is your preference, in another color, knit a single crochet on each pillar, in each of the circles. Then, join one circle to another by means of a chain of two chainlets.
6.- Work around the two circles in each single crochet a single crochet. Finish the round making a slip stitch.
7.- To finish, on each side we weave a chain of 100. Make three chains and weave in each chain a pillar.

Very clear explanation, photographs and diagram @jicrochet :)
Gracias. Sabes, dudé con la palabra. Una amiga me dice que es la traducción al inglés. Sigo investigando al respecto. Cómo sería en inglés realizar tres pilares o varetas?
@jicrochet, yo diría : 'make 3 htr' (BrE) or 'make 3 hdc' (AmE)
Le saqué una fotito a lo que dice la revista de donde saqué la galleta.
También puedes ver más información aquí.
De estas yo sólo uso Cadeneta, Punto deslizado, Medio punto y Punto entero - por eso que prefiero leer diagramas.
Hay diferencias entre los tipos de inglés y cuando me enseñaron en la escuela y mi mamá... sólo usábamos hasta punto entero.
Hice una breve búsqueda y encontré este sitio con una tabla bastante clara.
La cosa sería especificar y decir que estás usando una de las dos nomenclaturas para que la gente haga la conversión...
Esto ayuda muchisimo!
Gracias, gracias, gracias @cryptocariad. Excelente información. Disculpa no te haya respondido antes. Ando muy full con trabajo en la oficina. He estado trabajando hasta las 9:00 p.m, inclusive los fines de semana. Saludos. Qué estés muy bien!

Yes, I think we can crochet whatever we can think of. Greetings.
Now THAT sis exactly what I need @jicrochet! I'm still using the ones they give out on international flights, and the bands re too tight! I love your sleeping mask! Happy #NeedlworkMonday to you!
Ready, you can do yours. It's very easy to do. I made it in an hour. Regards.
