Pattern Instructions
Chain 2 at the beginning counts as a stitch. Stitches contained within ** are the repeat section for that row.
TIP: Make your starting chains loose, the mini puff stitches will make the row wider than it is initially.
Starting Chain: This pattern doesn’t require any multiples, make as many chains as you need. My starting chain is 18ch.
Row 1: Mini puff st in 3rd ch from the hook, mini puff st in each of the remaining chains (you will end up with 16 mini puff stitches), turn.
Row 2: ch2, mini puff stitch between the 1st and 2nd mini puff stitch below, mini puff stitch in every space between the mini puff stitches below.
Repeat row 2 until you have the required length.
