Notes

Starting chain with 5.00mm hook. Used 120 stitches - (3 time 38 V-stitches plus 4 for the two DC on each edge) plus 2 for turning chain/first stitch.

Using stacked SC instead of a turning chain for a neater edge.

Border: Stopped green at row 4 and did one side’s edging. Two SC per DC row. Turn and SC in each SC. Ch 2 then DC in the edge, maybe 2 - see how it looks, then complete the last row of green. Now do the SC edging down the remaining side. This normally works out with no joins except this time there was a big old knot halfway through the DC row. So annoying!
