π§΅ STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
π΄ ROUND 1 β CENTER CIRCLE
- Make a magic ring

- ch 1
- ch 4
- Skip 1 dc, sc in next dc
- ch 4
- Repeat β around the circle
- End with sl st into first sc
β You should have 6β12 chain spaces (depending on skips)

- sl st into the first ch-4 space
- ch 1
- Work 12 sc into the same ch-4 space

β This creates a thick round center

π’ ROUND 4 β CREATE LONG PETAL LOOPS
