Rows 4–9: Work single crochets around each loop:
Begin by adding 3 single crochets at the center of each loop for shaping.
Continue single crocheting across each loop to form defined “petals.”
After completing all rows, you should have 9 petals.
Step 4: Finish the Petals
Turn all petals to the left for a uniform and polished look.
Adding the Contrasting Edging
To make your hot pad pop, we’ll add a contrasting thread around the petals:
Starting at the top of any petal, work as follows:
1 single crochet (sc) in the middle of the petal’s tip.
Crochet 7 single crochets evenly along one side of the petal.
At the base (center) of the petal, work 15 single crochets for fullness.
Continue with 7 single crochets on the opposite side.
Repeat this process around all petals, connecting them into a complete circle.

Finishing Touches
- Once all petals are edged and joined, lightly steam the hot pad from the reverse side to flatten and set the shape. Avoid direct contact with the yarn to maintain its quality.
- Use the tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends.
