Steps to Crochet a Lotus Mandala Circular Vest

The following steps outline the basic approach to creating a crochet Lotus Mandala Circular Vest. This pattern requires a basic understanding of mandala rounds, increases, and finishing techniques.

Step 1: Start with the Center Mandala

1. Foundation Ring: Begin with a magic ring or chain 4 and join with a slip stitch to form a ring.
2. Round 1: Work a round of double crochets (dc) or half double crochets (hdc) around the ring. The total number of stitches should be a multiple that fits into the pattern repeat.
3. Petal Formation: Use chain spaces and clusters to create petal-like shapes in subsequent rounds, mimicking the look of a lotus.

Step 2: Build Out the Circular Shape

1. Increasing Rounds: Continue building outwards, increasing stitches as needed to maintain the flat circular shape.
2. Mandala Pattern: Each new round should add another layer to the mandala, using creative combinations of double crochets, chain spaces, clusters, and fans to achieve the lotus shape.
3. Armhole Creation: Once the vest reaches the right diameter to fit comfortably, create armholes by skipping a set number of stitches and chaining over the gap.

Step 3: Continue Outer Rounds and Border

1. Finalize the Body: After creating the armholes, continue with additional rounds to create the bottom section of the vest, gradually enlarging the diameter for a flowing effect.
2. Add Edging: To finish the vest, add a border around the entire circumference. Consider a picot edge or shell stitch for a delicate finish.
