NotesNotes
Chains do not count as stitches in the stitch count throughout the pattern.

Square will initially curl upwards while you are crocheting it; this can be adjusted by stretching the square considerably when finished (pulling from corners outward until piece lays flat). In Rnd 7 of Sunflower Square, you may wish to chain 8 instead of 7, if your work is curling too much.

Throw blanket in this pattern consists of 24 squares (4 across, 6 down). Blanket size can be adjusted by adding/reducing number of squares.
