Note: If the extended DC on the edge are not pulled up high enough, the stitches on the edge may pucker.  You can work 1 or 2 less chains to compensate for the pucker.

Work 1 DC in each of the next 3 chains. Continue across from * for the width.  Work 1 DC in each of the remaining 4 chains on the edge.  Each edge will have 4 DC.  Cut the yarn and change color.

Row 2:  Attach the new color to the previous ending point.  Chain 6, Skip the 3 DC. Work an Extended DC(see video) over the chain and through the beginning foundation chain, 2 rows below. Work 2 more extended DC. *CH 3 Skip the next 3 DC, Work an extended DC in each of the next 3 chains 2 rows below. Continue across from *.  When you get to the edge, work one last chain 3, work a DC in the last stitch. Cut the yarn and change color.

Row 3: Attach the new color to the beginning stitch.  Chain 3, working over the chain, work an extended DC in each of the next 3 stitches 2 rows below. *Chain 3, working over the chain, work an extended DC in each of the next 3 stitches 2 rows below.
