Notes:
Piece is knit in the round
Stitch sequences outlined in (red) denote rows or segments of the chart that are repeated in the round. Stitch sequences outlined in green denote repeats that are simplified from the chart. Check the written instructions for the correct count.
When stitch counts change, it is noted (in blue italics).
This pattern requires almost exactly seven skeins of the yarn suggested. If you are worried about gauge, please consider another skein.
If you are using stitch markers to separate repeats, they will have to move with Round 37 where six sections become nine

This is a project that started out as a long awaited tree skirt, that lived in the imagination long before it’s life in the holiday decorations. Little did I know that by bending to the family expectations we would end up with a throw blanket to snuggle up with.
