Start by making the foundation chain with 30 stitches (or any multiple of 6) with crochet hook number 4 mm.
Work in rounds following the crochet diagram from the bottom to the top and from right to left.
Repeat the motif in black (R) 3 times or as many times as needed to cover the candle.
TIP: To obtain a more professional finish, replace the foundation chain and the first round for a chainless foundation double crochet (fdc).
