FLAT SC CIRCLES AND MY LOOPI FLOWER PATTERN

original post from 2009

This pattern uses a sc solid circle, i always foreign not the easiest circle to do and keep a flat circle..start with 8 sts and increase 8 sts each round should keep the sc circle flat.

FLAT SC CIRCLE

Round 1: 8sc into circle [8sc]

Round 2: 2sc in each st. [16sc]

Round 3: 2sc, 1sc, repeat to end. [24sc]

Round 4: 2sc, 1sc in next 2sts.[32sc]
