NOTES

1. Read the pattern carefully before starting.
2. Each row begins with chain 1 but this beginning or turning chain DOES NOT count as a stitch.
3. This pattern is worked from the bottom up, from right to left, and turning each row (back and forth).
4. When the pattern is written as W2, this means, you have to make single crochet with white color (or whatever color the instruction calls for) in the next 2 sts. Another example, G5 means with green yarn single crochet in the next 5 sts.
5. A chart is provided for your reference.
6. With all the colors and numbers, I recommend using a highlighter to track your progress.
7. When changing colors, you can just float the non-working yarn at the WS of your work and pick it up when you need it.
8. Pay attention to the LEGEND for what stitch goes to each color. Remember that Y was used to represent the placements of the beads and it doesn’t mean that you have to use yellow yarn. With Y, you still have to use green yarn with the bead using loop stitch.
