The biggest difference between a front float post stitch and a regular cable post stitch is the stitch behind the post stitch will also be worked to make it ‘float’ on the front. Starting on round 8, all post stitches will be worked around the post stitches from three rows below
Front Float Post Treble Crochet (FFtr)
Yo two times, insert hook from front-to back-to-front around post of indicated st (or next available floating st, if no st is indicated) and pull up a loop, [yo and draw through 2 loops] 3 times.
Front Float Post Double Crochet (FFdc)
Yo, insert hook from front-to back-to-front around post of indicated st (or next available floating st, if no st is indicated) and pull up a loop, [yo and draw through 2 loops] twice.

Infinity Floor Pouf Assembly
Joining the Top:
The right sides will be facing when joining.
To join one of the circles to the pouf body, slip stitch through the back loop only of the pouf body and the flo of the pouf circle. Once slip stitches around, fasten off and weave in end.
Joining the Bottom with a Zipper:
Join by slip stitches the same way as above but leave an opening for a zipper, fasten off and weave in ends.
Using a sewing needle and thread, stitch the zipper inside the opening. It's helpful to pin the zipper into place before sewing it to the pouf.
