Notes

The pattern is worked in joined rounds.
The initial ch 3 counts as a stitch.
Slip stitches do not count as stitches and will not be included in the stitch counts at the end of the round.
This pattern can be worked in a single color, or multiple colors.
If you are making color changes, do so on the last stitch of the round, on the last yarn over of the stitch.
The bunting sample was made using 4 hexagon snowflakes but you can adjust the size by making extra hexagons for your project.
You can substitute the initial DMR for a chain 4, and slip stitch to create a ring. For other starting options please see this post: You Don’t Have to Use a Magic Ring.
