- Worth noticing
- Its mandala example includes a warning that one round’s outer edge is 64% of a flat circle at that size.
Field notes
The example defines stitches and motifs once, then reuses them in a seven-round layout. The same pattern is presented as a chart and written instructions, with US terms visible and UK terms also mentioned. A color view reports stitch count, approximate finished width, and yarn length; the site also shows a sample warning comparing a round’s edge with a flat circle.
