It makes it so much easier to mark your piece for sewing when you have them on the toilet paper roll, so go grab one and put the side piece on. Make sure the stitches are going in the right direction! Then grab your top piece and set it on top. Use the front or back side, whichever way you like best.

I cut bits of string from my secondary color to use as marker holders here.

There are more Puff Stitches on the Side piece than there are on the Top piece, so you won’t be able to line the puffs exactly perfectly, but you can for a lot of them. Do your best.

Then insert your hook under a stitch on both pieces and put a tail here to hold it in place. Repeat this around the whole piece until it’s all tied down. This will help keep it in place as you sew, as well as help you crochet more evenly. Once you have it marked, then remove the toilet paper roll for the sewing portion.

Create a slip knot with your MAIN COLOR again and insert your hook going in through a stitch on both pieces. Pull up a loop, 2 loops on your hook, YO and pull through both loops to create your SC attachment.

Now while your pieces aren’t perfectly aligned, I did find a way to keep it more even at the start anyway.

I attached my yarn at a place where my puff stitches were aligned on both V Puff stitches on my Side piece and Top Piece and did my SC attachment there.

Then SC and ch 1 on both sides of my DC’s on the Side piece which ended up in the same ch 2 space on my TOP piece. Doing that helped me stay a bit more even, but as I said, the pieces aren’t perfectly aligned, so you can only get away with it a few times. Just wanted to mention it in case it helps you keep it more even.

Once you’re done attaching both pieces, then it’s time to make the bottom ruffle, so turn your piece over. We’ll be crocheting on the bottom side of the stitch.

Grab your SECONDARY color now.

I used both loops of the stitch when crocheting here at the bottom.

TCFS attach your yarn to any stitch on the bottom of your piece. TRC 2 more times in this same stitch.

*TRC 3 in all your sts around*

To end: ch 1 and leaving a bit of a tail that can be hidden later with a tapestry needle, cut your yarn.
