  2. Try using a slightly heavier weight yarn and a larger hook.

  3. Hi Kristine,
    I've been having a great time using your patterns and making gifts for my family. My only problem is not being able to find a 3mm hook. And I've driven all over looking! It would be great to have the finished measurements if using a 3.25 hook. Thanks,
    Joni Kelly <><

  4. I've made this with a 2mm hook and fine crochet cotton that I usually use for doilies. Lovely pattern, until the last round - did you find that the first and last 3ch/sc on each 'petal' overlapped each other when it was laid down? Is that overlapping intentional? I'd suggest a slight adjustment that potentially joins the edges of each petal a bit higher up.
