NOTES

• Join most rounds with a SLST in the top of beginning stitch unless otherwise noted.
• “In next stitch” does not refer to chain stitches.
• Pattern repeats for each round are marked with (*).
• I highly recommend crocheting over your starting thread as you work the beginning rounds so that you
don’t have to weave it in later. Use a smaller hook to weave in your final end.
• Please read through the stitches and terms section before beginning. All stitches in this pattern are listed
and/or explained in this section unless they are explained within the round. Please refer to this section for
any unexplained stitches.
