The following pattern is my original design.
Please only copy or print this pattern for personal use.
Thanks to Pat Harper we have made revisions to this pattern.
I had a typo in Row 3 but since have corrected the pattern.
Pat also found an error in Row 5 which has been corrected.
Thanks again Pat !
Thanks to Cyndi Hildebrand we've made one more minor correction to Row 5.
We changed the part about working a sc in 4 scs to working a sc in 4 chs.
I've also added instructions for the SC Dec and expanded some abbreviations
to make this pattern easier for you.
