Cool flower

Flower.  It’s quite easy and gives you an interesting 3-D effect.  It can be worked in any yarn weight.  However, heavier weight yarns like worsted or bulky weights works best to give it a sturdier and nice texture.  Even the good ol’ Red Heart Super Saver works fine for this flower.  Enjoy it!

Ch 7, join with sl st in first ch to form a ring. 
Rnd 1: * ch 10, sl st in next ch, rep from * around, join with sl st in first ch – (7 ch-10 loops)
