Kiss
45 × 45 · 2,025 stitches · 5 colors · by NaredCraft
About this pattern
A lipstick print, the kind left on a note, leaning the way a kiss mark never lands square. Four reds carry the shape and a pale gloss lifts the highlights, with speckle around the edge for texture. Five colors, worked flat in single crochet with no shaping. Finishes around 28 by 28 cm, a square for a cushion or a frame.
- Five-color symbol chart, readable even printed in black and white

How to read it
Work flat in single crochet, from the bottom of the chart up. Chain 46 and work row 1 into the chain, starting in the second chain from the hook.
Row 1 is a right side (RS) row, worked from right to left. Turn, and row 2 is a wrong side (WS) row, worked from left to right. Keep alternating to the top.
Each entry is a run of one color: "12 X" means 12 single crochet in the color marked X. Carry the colors you are not using along the top of the row and crochet over them, and switch to the new color on the last yarn over of the stitch before it, so every stitch comes out clean.
