4th of July Circle Bag Pattern
I’ll start with a few notes before beginning
– Ch 2 at the begging of the 4th round and beyond do not count as a stitch.
– You’ll end each round by making a sl st into the first stitch to close the ring.
– The cross stitch in this pattern is just to add a bit of texture, so feel free to skip this if you don’t find it necessary. You’ll be crossing back to the previous stitch.
