PATTERN NOTES
The pattern is written in 2 sections.
The Placemat is worked in rows, the Border in rounds.
The placemat is worked entirely in sc.
If the pattern says “(A) 7”, it means that you need to sc in each of the next 7 sts using
color A.
At the end of each row, ch 1 and turn.
The initial ch 1 does NOT count as a st.
With the exception of the border, the stitch count is always 30 sts.
