Get Paid For Your Opinion! $10 to $125 per hour!
Pattern: To begin, ch 4, join with sl st to form a ring.
Rnd 1: Make 12 sc in ring.
Rnd 2: Sc in each sc around, increasing 2 sc in every second st.
Rnd 3: Sc in each sc around, increase 2 sc in every third st.
Rnd 4: Sc in each sc around, increase 2 sc in every 4th st.
Continue working sc around until 11 rounds are completed or for desired number of rnds, depending on size, increasing in same manner. Finish with a rnd of sl st for an finished look edge; do not cut thread.
For a ring, ch 10, sl st in first ch and then fill ring with sc. Fasten and cut thread.
For double thickness, make two pinwheels as above and crochet them together.
This could become a rug by working continuous rnds of sc and increases, probably using a little heavier yarn and larger size hook.
