4. Round 3:
   • Work *1 sc in the next stitch, then increase in the next stitch* and repeat around. You should have 18 stitches at the end of this round.
5. Round 4:
   • Work *1 sc in the next 2 stitches, then increase in the next stitch* and repeat around. You will have 24 stitches at the end of this round.
6. Rounds 5-7:
   • Single crochet in each stitch around for 3 rounds. You should still have 24 stitches at the end of these rounds.
7. Round 8:

8. Round 9:
   • Work *1 sc in the next stitch, then decrease* and repeat around. You will have 12 stitches at the end of this round.
9. Round 10:
   • Decrease around until you have 6 stitches left. Pull the yarn through the last stitch and fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing.

    • Repeat steps 1-10 to create a second bow.
11. Create the Center:

12. Assemble the Bow:
    • Wrap the cream piece around the center of the two bows and sew in place securely.
