“BODY/SQUARES” (make 2)
This is going to be “the stuffing” of the turtle, and only the edge will be visible when you’re done with your turtle.
Normally I like to spread increases when making a circle, but for this it’s ok – even preferable to increase in the beginning of each round as it will resemble more of a hexagon shape.

2. incx6 (12)
3. (inc, sc)x6 (18)
4. (inc, sc2)x6 (24)
