Instructions:

Color A – Ch 29 (leave a 12 inch tail)

Row 1: 1 dc in 4th ch from hook, 1 dc in each ch across. (27 dc).

Row 2-3 Ch 3, turn, (counts as first st throughout), 1 dc in each st, sl st to top of beginning ch 3. (27 dc).

Round 4: Ch 1, turn, *1 sc in each st across, placing 3 sc in each corner, sc evenly along end of rows, 3 sc in corner*, repeat *-* around, ending with sl st to beginning sc. (75 sc). Do not cut yarn.

Using the 12 inch tail, fold in half and match up the stitches. Using the tapestry needle, whip stitch the ends together. End off yarn, weave in end.

3 Color Chain Loop Edging: See video tutorial click HERE.

Note: Using three Colors A, B and C for edging, untwist the yarn every couple of loops to keep it separated and easier to work with. The current Color on hook is worked in front of the dropped Colors.

Round 5: Pick up Color A (Green) loop, Ch 6, drop loop off hook. Add Color B (White) in next st with sl st, Ch 6, drop loop off hook, push Ch to back. Add Color C (Red) in next st with sl st, Ch 6, drop loop off hook, push Ch to back.
