Instructions
Gauge: Not critical for this project, but aim for a firm, consistent fabric.
Part 1: Cream Flower Motifs (CFM)
Using Off-White/Cream yarn, make 12 CFM: Ch 4, sl st into first ch to form a ring. *Ch 2, work 2 dc into ring, ch 2, sl st into ring.* Repeat from * 4 times total for 4 petals. Fasten off, leaving a 6-inch tail for joining.

Row 2 (First Expansion): Ch 3 (counts as 1st dc), dc in same st, dc in next 2 sc, (dc, ch 2, dc) in next sc (this is the center point), dc in next 2 sc, 2 dc in last sc. Turn. (10 dc, 1 ch-2 sp)
Row 3 (Mesh Base with Picots/Teal ‘Flowers’): Ch 4 (counts as dc + ch 1), *sk next dc, dc in next dc, ch 1*. Repeat from * 2 times. In ch-2 sp: (dc, ch 3, dc, ch 1). *Sk next dc, dc in next dc, ch 1*. Repeat from * 2 times, sk next dc, dc in last dc. Turn. (8 dc, 7 ch-1 sps, 1 ch-3 sp)

Dc in next sc.* Repeat from * across the row, joining CFM at regular intervals (approximately 4 CFM on each side for this row). The final dc should be in the last sc of the previous row. Turn.
