NOTES
- There are options in the pattern to use stitches other than what is shown on the sample. You only need to choose ONE of the options.
- For example, the pattern start is written for foundation stitches; but if you do not like foundation stitches, please follow option #2 with chains. Both options will work and the option is for what you enjoy to crochet more.
- Project is worked in the round without turning at the end of the round.
- Working in the third loop of the hdc gives a wonderful texture to the project, but if this is too challenging or not enjoyable, just work through either the back loop or both loops as normal.
