Inspired by 1970s prints, this modern interpretation of a retro design is perfect for your next project.

The pattern:
The block is worked in the round and always from the front, using colour changes and a range of basic stitches to create the design. Included in the PDF download are step by step photos and detailed written instructions.

Crochet terminology:
The pattern is written in UK terminology, with a conversion chart to US terms at the top of the pattern.

Level of difficulty:
Beginner: there’s nothing particularly difficult here, though it might be a little fiddly in places. Instructions for special stitches are at the top of the pattern.
