Making the two larger petals of the pansy only with dc and tc. I hate triple trebles etc.

Made 4 yellow, 1 blue flowers (of 12 total).

*The flowers are
-3 petals 15dc
-final 2 petals - (dc, ch 1) 5times, (tc, ch1) 5 times, dc, ch1) 5times



30 March 2021 - picking up again, have decided to use only 2 colors for the flowers (6 each).

20 April 2021 - finished the flowers over the last couple days. If I was to make this style of pansy again, I think I would leave out the stiches between the petals in the second round. I don't think it adds much. Kitchen scale claims all the flowers together are 8g. 



24 April 2021 - did the attachment round, then the single row of edging. 

26 April 2021 - blocking day! I will take photos in the morning then call this one done.
