The only part of the pattern I don’t like is the flower at the top. I’ve read the instructions several times and as far as I can tell it doesn’t tell you how you are supposed to attach it to the chain so I just did what I thought would work and I’m not happy how it came out. I am thinking of cutting it off and doing something else on the end instead. We’ll see.
This has not been blocked and it lays a little wonky, but I think putting it in a book for a little while will tame it without doing anything more to it except make sure it is adjusted correctly right before the book closes.
I think if I make this again it will be with a few changes besides the flower. Making those extra short chains at each corner looks good but it makes a lot of ends to hide!
