Pattern Notes:
- This pattern is made using US terminology.
- The pattern is written in rows. Turn after each row.
- The ch 1 at the beginning of the rows are not considered as a stitch in the final stitch count.
- The yardage for this pattern is based on the amount of yarn used after dividing the larger skeins into smaller individual color balls for colorwork. Yarn in this pattern was not carried over, rather I made multiple balls of yarn to accommodate the color changes. This creates a clean reversible look.
- This pattern calls for repeats. During these sections, repeat the respective section until the end of the row. Note, sometimes, the entire repeat section will not be completed.
