Mistake that I noticed in the video: at 3:38 I forget to explain what I'm doing. I'm simply doing a row of 10 single crochet.

Pattern: I apologize now. I don't normally write out my patterns so I hope it makes sense. Note- directions in between asterisks mean to repeat it until the end of the round. All parts are finished by doing a slip stitch and a chain 1.
