The following pattern is my original design.
Please only copy or print this pattern for personal use.
This pattern has not been tested so please contact me if you find any errors.
MATERIALS:
Hook: Size H
Yarn: 4 ply worsted weight yarn (brown and yellow)
Stitches used: ch, sc, dc, Sasha's Picot.
SASHA'S PICOT = Ch 3, sc in 3rd ch from hk.
Now I know you're all thinking, what is Sasha's Picot???
Well, that's my niece's version of the traditional picot. the only difference between the two is the traditional picot uses a slip stitch and Sasha's uses a single crochet. Anyway, Sasha sat down with me while I was designing and after she played around with her yarn she asked me what she just did. I said I didn't know but would she show me. She did and to make a long story a short one... I used her style of picot stitch to make the sunflower petals. So this design is thanks to Sasha Louise Watts, Future Crochet Designer :o)
