PATTERN NOTES

• Start dc rows with stacked double crochet (stdc) to avoid the gaps that can occur with turning chs. Stdc sts count as dcs in the st count for each row.
• Work row one into the bottom bumps (sometimes called back bumps) of the foundation ch. Tutorial at https://craftingeachday.com/how-to-crochet-in-the-bottom-bump-of-the-chain.
• There is a color guide at the end of the pattern for color changing suggestions.
