MANDALA OVAL CAL COMPLETE PATTERN

Sage, Marble and olive dk, the marble was something else at some point  and the sage and olive are part balls of left overs. 

PROJECT NOTES

As this is a left over yarn project, I started with 3 shades of green and a a ball of Lime green Marble dk that had been something else but i had un traveled it to re use...it ran out and i hadn't really used that much of the plain yarns so are think was in order. 

The DK Marble had a tiny amount of purple in the spin every now and then so i picked a plain purple yarn and i found a space dyed pink through brown sorry I have no idea what it is but those are the 2 yarns i have added to the mix so far

NOTES: At this point mine was a little frilly, someone need of a tighter stitch.
2 Round Block stitch is a perfect tightening stitch.......alternate rows of sc, ch1, sc, ch1, and blocks of 2dc, into the ch1 sp. A great border stitch as it doesn't curl, giving a firm edging.

ROUND 3: Starting at a point, using a dark pink shade, sc, ch3, sc in any point, ch1, sc in next sp, repeat to the dip, sc in last sp, miss bottom dip, no ch at dip, sc in first sp going up to point, ch1, sc, ch1 sc, repeat to next point, sc, ch3, sc, at point , repeat to end.

[15 pairs of dc,each up and down]

ROUND 5: Repeat round 3. in shades of pink and purple.
ROUND 6: Repeat round 4. In shades of green, marble yarn changes from light to dark.

Continue to repeat rounds 3 and 4, until it is the size you want.

Block stitch will give a firm non curl border to your ripple.
