INSTRUCTIONS
Notes:
To begin working with the O’Go format, carefully cut plastic tie where the ends of the O’Go meet.
Pull tie to remove.
For this pattern, colors can be easily separated by gently pulling apart and cutting at the color transition. Each color is ready to use.
When working from 2 O’Gos, note that colors MUST match from both O’Gos when indicated. When starting new O’Go, take care to match the color change stripe in ring to keep the pattern consistent.
Leftover yarn can be used later to match up.
The instructions are written for smallest size. If changes are necessary for larger sizes the instructions will be written thus ( ). When only one number is given, it applies to all sizes.
Notes:
Join all rnds with sl st to first sc
Base and Edging are worked with 2 strands held tog throughout.
