Pattern Notes:
- To make a puff stitch, wrap yarn around hook, bring up a loop (3 loops on the hook), wrap yarn around hook again and bring up a loop (5 loops on the hook), wrap yarn around hook and bring up a loop (7 loops on the hook). Wrap yarn around hook one last time and bring it through all 7 loops on the hook.
