Note 1: When using one of the multicolor worsted weights you may want to ch 17 and work 10 rows before starting flap. Seems most the multicolor yarns are thinner than the solids. Then work the flap over 15 stitches.

Note 2: It seems easiest to work the case inside out when working in the back loop, turning right side out for round 9 and flap.
