Swing

Start with Color Peach Yarn

Important!!

Using joined rnds for the swing, which means at the start of each rnds, you ch 1 and you finish your rnds with a sl st to the first st of the rnd. The ch 1 and sl st does not count as a stitch. I also included these into the instruction. After joining the rnd, you start the first st of the next rnd in the same st as the sl st you made.​​
