Design Inspiration

This cauliflower is the 14th pattern for the Pregnancy Progress Project! A cauliflower is approximately 2 lbs, the same size as a baby at 27 weeks of pregnancy! Not only is this a cute addition for tracking your pregnancy, it would also make an adorable toy for your kids or pets!

Notes

● The main body is worked in the round and joined with a SL ST at the end of each round. SL ST to the first ST of the previous round and CH 2. The leaf is not joined at the end of each round. Use a stitch marker to keep proper stitch count.
● When working the rounds with the bobble stitches, the ‘wrong side’ of your work will be facing you. When you move to the rounds using SC, you will turn your piece around so that the ‘right side’ is facing the you.
● Repeat instructions given between asterisks (*) until the end of each round
● The number in parenthesis at the end of each round states the total number of stitches for that round
● Final size is approximately 6 inches
