PATTERN NOTES
Chain-1 at beginning of row or round does not count as first
single crochet.
All colorwork stitches worked are single crochet.
When working colorwork section of pattern, always work over
nonworking yarn about 5–10 stitches before first color change and drop nonworking yarn about 5–10 stitches after last color change in each row. Use care to leave a long enough tail to weave in.
Weave in loose ends as work progresses.
When working first round of border, evenly space stitches across side edges.
Join with slip stitch as indicated unless otherwise stated.
