1.  Carefully mark a circle on your fabric with a dot right in the centre.  Mark 7 (or any odd number)  dots on the circle equal distance from each other.

2.  Bringing the thread up on one of the marked dots on the edge of the circle take a stitch into the centre.

3.  Bring the needle out on the next mark taking a stitch into the center of the circle until all  7 stitches form spokes to the wheel like pattern.

4.  Bring the thread back up just beside the central dot to the left of spoke 1.

5. Take the needle over spoke 1 over and back in a clockwise direction under spoke 1 and the spoke directly to its left . 

6. Bring the needle round this spoke working back in a clockwise direction over the spoke back round it and the spoke to its left.

Repeat step 6 until all spokes are entirely covered.
