Square is 6 inches but can be adjusted by adding a row of sc or cutting out the last row etc.

Materials: Cream, Sage Green and Purple yarn. I used a Sayelle.
Lower down the page you can see another version where I used red yarn
for the flower and black for the background

Hook size 4.5mm or size needed to obtain a 6 inch square.

Begin by making the background and add the flower at the end

Always use ch3 for the first dc of each round.

With green, Ch 6 and join with sl st

Rnd 1: Work 16dc in ring. sl st to join

Rnd 2: Working in BACK LOOPS ONLY: 2dc in each st around. sl st to join
