Pattern Correction and Tips

• Tip: Leave extra-long yarn tails at the first and last points for easy finishing or multiple attachments.
• Correction: If following along with video, ensure you count 9 sc in the center ring and that each petal uses only one single crochet unless you desire a fuller flower.
• Tip: When making chains for hanging, ensure tails are long enough for the intended purpose-better to have more than not enough.
