NOTES:

1. You will work the C2C square on the diagonal starting from bottom right corner to top left.
2. The uneven rows will be on the right side of work, while the even rows on the wrong side of work.
3. The pattern includes row written row by row instructions for color counts and a downloadable color pixel graph that you can find below the written instructions!
4. The Lava Fox C2C Pattern is worked using the C2C in hdc (half double crochet), that makes for a smaller C2C with less holes then the C2C worked with the double crochet.

You can find the basic instructions of the C2C in half double crochet, tips for color changes (with Video Tutorials) and the links to the new squares added each week on the Wildlife Graphghan CAL Page! .
