Gauge is not particularly important so long as it is consistent. If you want to obtain my gauge (which is always loose) at the end of round 4 you should measure 3.5 inches diameter.

This pattern is for the SQUARE ONLY. I may post a border option on my blog, so stay tuned for that.

This pattern has been tested and should be considered for experienced crocheters only. That being said, I did have a few beginner testers that were able to make this due to the photos I have also included (as always, photos are at the END of the pattern so you can chose to omit them when printing if you so choose).

UPDATE: If you downloaded the pattern before June 17, 2018 you will want to add: BP=Back post and FP=Front post. This addition is included in the newer pdf. My apologies for any confusion that may have caused!
