    For Sunflower: Use black yarn.

  4. Pull tight to close the ring and sl st into the top of the ch 3 to finish the round.

Round 2: Flower Petals

  1. Join white yarn for the petals in Daisy or yellow yarn for Sunflower.

    • Insert hook into any sp between dc stitches of Round 1.
    • Ch 4 (counts as first tr), make 2 tr into the same sp.
    • Yarn over and pull through all loops on hook to form one petal.

  3. Repeat 3 dc in next petal space.

Tip: Check all squares against one another to ensure uniform size.

Step 2: Assembling Granny Squares

  1. Lay out 4 squares for the base of the beanie in a circle.
    • Ensure all "right sides" are facing the same way for consistency in texture.
  2. Use a sl st method or a tapestry needle to sew squares together.
    • Align corners and edges precisely.

Step 3: Joining the Top

Tips for Customization

  1. Size Adjustments:

    • Experiment with different petal and square background colors to create unique combinations.
  3. Material:
    • Cotton yarns add breathability and structure, while acrylic yarns provide stretch and warmth for colder weather.
