Discontinued. This digital pattern is no longer available online.

This work depicts ranks of tulips at the centre of the pattern and these then get fewer in number towards the edge. It is ideally suited to mandala or would look pretty awesome in a block colour too. There is an exit point on round 27 if you want a 2 cake project or caryy on for a nearly 3 cake project. You could add a few more rounds of just plain double crochet if you wanted towards the edge.
It is a repeat pattern but it is not an obvious repeat.
It is not a professional pattern and has been untested by others. I have checked it thoroughly several times but if you find something that’s not right please let me know so I can put it right asap.
You do need to know how to do popcorn stitch and puff stitch.
I hope you enjoy working it and experiment to make it your own.
