Begin Petals~

R12 ch1, sc in same sp as ch1.* Skip next st, [3dc, ch2, slst in top of last dc made, (picot) 2dc] (petal) all in same st, skip next st, sc in next st. * Repeat * around ending with a slst in the first sc. (15 petals made) Finish off and weave in ends.

 

For all other rows of petals, join yarn in any free loop (front loops of

the basic beanie you started with, because we worked in the back

loops to make it) of any round after R5. (you need to have a multiple

of 5 for the petal stitches to work)

 

You can add petal rows in R5, R6, R7, R8, R9, R10, and R11 has a

row of petals. (R12) You can repeat the row of petals as many times

as you wish. In the main photo, I skipped a row in between each row

of petals. Placing petal rows in R11, R9, R7, and R5.
