Notes
- Chain 1 will NOT count as a stitch.
- Joining: When ending the rounds, you will join with a slip stitch into the 1st stitch (not the chain 1).
- When you work the 7 dc, you will be working in the ch 1 of the ch 3 NOT the dc7tog, if you work the 7 dc in the dc7tog the circle will not line up it will be off centered.
