CROCHET PATTERN — MAKE YOUR OWN PANCAKE
Start your morning right with a few crocheted pancakes! They may not be edible, but they sure will brighten up your day. This is a relatively simple project but does require an beginner/intermediate level of crochet experience.
This pattern makes one crocheted pancake that is 4 1/2 inches wide.

YO then pull through (3 loops on hook). YO then pull through 2 of 3 loops. YO then insert hook in next st. YO and pull through (4 loops on hook). YO then pull through 2 of 4 loops.
