Flower Christmas Tree Skirt

"This easy skirt pattern is done in rows using increases to make it round. White and green holiday yarn alternate every 5 rows to give a striped pattern. The flowers are each done separately in red and the pattern includes easy instructions and a diagram to help you learn how to crochet them. Then the flowers are sewn on in an overlapping pattern, leaving the overlapping part loose to make the petals appear to be lifted when you curl them with your fingers."
