pf inc = puff increase (work 2 puff stitches in the same st)
Gauge:
8 dc = 2" wide
5 rows = 2" tall
Note: To make the puff stitch, yarn over, insert the hook into the st and pull up a loop, [yarn over, insert the hook into the same st and pull up a loop] 3 more times, yarn over and pull through all 9 loops, ch 1

Round 3: ch 1, pf around, ss to join (12 pf)
Round 4: ch 1, [pf inc, pf in the next space] around, ss to join (18 pf)
Round 5: ch 1, pf around, ss to join (18 pf)
Round 6: ch 1, [pf inc, pf in the next 5 spaces] around, ss to join (21 pf)
Rounds 7-11: ch 1, pf around, ss to join (21 pf)
Round 12: ch 1, [sc in the top of the pf from the previous round, sc in the space between the pf] around, ss to join (42 sc)
Round 13: ch 1, sc around, ss to join (42 sc)
