Notes

This pattern uses intarsia crochet. Intarsia crochet involves using separate yarn bobbins or small balls for each color block, ensuring that yarn is not carried across the back of the work. Follow the color chart carefully and manage yarn changes neatly to maintain a clean finish.

Work with a 4 mm hook unless it says otherwise.

At the end of each row ch 2 and turn.

Ch 2 doesn’t count as a stitch.

Row 1 is foundation double crochet.

You will be working with dc: when instructions say “(B) x 7” it means 1 dc in the next 7 sts with yarn B.

Each size has a link to the “Progress Tracker” for easy to follow instructions.
