DECREASE PUFF STITCH
The first puff stitch round is easy until you are greeted with holes (spaces) in the next round.

Focus on the loop on top of each puff stitch. There's where you put your puff stitches and increase (two puffs in one!)

If you are having difficulties crocheting through a tight stitch, go into that space instead! (even I cheated)

Yarn over and insert the hook into the front loop of a puff stitch.

Yarn over and pull through the remaining loops.

Yarn over, insert hook into the stitch, yarn over and pull thru 3 loops
*Yarn over, insert back into the stitch, yarn over and pull thru loops.*
(*repeat 3 more times)

Hope this helps!
