Making Circles into Squares

I have not received this BOGO pattern nor another the New Christmas Flower when the above order was placed. I ordered the new Zinnia flower and a Sunflower pattern which I did not receive. This is my fourth letter asking for this to be corrected. One letter also was followed by my confirmed email. Please correct this error. Thank you, Beverly Farmer

Thanks for the opportunity to provide feedback. In my opinion the pattern could be improved by -
- Including instructions for round 2 for all ring circles not just the 5 ring circle. For a beginner adjusting the stitch count is very confusing without clear instructions
- Including the instructions for what is shown on the YouTube tutorial i.e. Turning your work at the end of each round/adding a row of single crochet/adjusting the stitch to hide the join etc
