Chain stitches race like electrons around rosy cores in this lacy join-as-you-go project. Half double crochets worked in the back bar give texture and definition to the swirly nuclei.

Gauge Each motif = 2½“ diameter.

See bottom photo at left for assembly diagram. Poncho is made with alternating rows of 14 and 15 motifs. The neck opening is formed by leaving out the center 4 motifs of Row 7.
