  1. Hi. I'm trying to do this pattern and I've noticed you have 2 rnd 6's and you change from color A to B then to C (which is the smaller lines in the middle of the pot) then back to B. If I'm right then your missing another C and then B to end the top before the dirt

    1. Yes, you are correct - the last rows in the top were missing. Thank you for pointing this. I edited the pattern.
