Pattern Correction & Tips
- Correction: Ensure the ch 3 at the start of each dc round counts as a dc.
- Tip: Keep stitches loose for easier petal formation and a softer, larger flower. If your petals curl too much, increase the number of dc on each side for a fuller look.
- Tip: For beginners, mark the beginning of each round to keep track.
