PATTERN NOTES
Due to the number of stitches, a Tunisian crochet hook with a flexible cable is recommended.
Each Tunisian crochet row consists of a forward pass (FP) and a return pass (RP).
When changing colors in Sections 2 and 3, work the forward pass with the old color and the return pass with the new color. Leave the old color at the side of the row and pick it up when needed on the next row.
Weave in ends as work progresses.
Join with slip stitch as indicated unless otherwise stated.
