Continue Expanding
Keep increasing each round by adding one extra single crochet between increases until your circle reaches the desired size.
Change yarn colors every few rounds to create the vibrant striped effect.
Creating the Spiral
The magic happens with the edging.
Work around the entire circle:
3 dc in every stitch
or
2 hdc + 2 dc in each stitch
This adds enough fullness for the circle to naturally twist into a beautiful spiral.
If you want a tighter spiral, crochet 4 double crochet stitches in every stitch.
