Starting at center,ch 9, join with sl st. 1ST RND: 16 sc in ring,
sl st in 1st sc made. 2ND RND: Sc in same plaace as sl st, * ch 5, skip 1 sc, sc in next
sc. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 5. 3RD RND: * Sc in next sc, 2 sc in ch-5sp, ch
4. Repeat form * around. 4TH to 15TH RNDS incl: Skip 1st sc, sc in each remaining sc of
sc-group, 2 sc in ch-4sp, ch 4. Repeat from * around (15 sc in each sc-group on last rnd).
16TH RND: Ch 4, * skip 1 sc, sc in next 13 sc, ch 4, sc in ch-4sp, ch 4. Repeat from *
around. 17TH RND: Ch 5, * skip 1 sc, sc in next 11 sc; (ch 5, sc in next loop) twice; ch
5. Repeat from * around. Continue in this manner, having 2 sc less in each sc-group and 1
loop more between sc-groups on each rnd, until 1 sc remains in each sc-group, and ending
with ch 5, sc in loop preceding 1st sc. Now work as follows:
1ST RND: * Ch 2, sc in next loop; (ch 5, sc in next loop) 7
times. Repeat from * around, ending with sc in loop preceding 1st ch-2. 2ND RND: * Ch 5,
skip ch-2 loop, sc in next loop; (ch 5, sc in next loop) 6 times. Repeat from * around.
3RD RND: * Ch 5, sc in next loop. Repeat from * around. 4TH RND: * Ch 5, 6 dc in next
loop; (ch 5, sc in next loop) 5 times. Repeat from * around, ending with sc in loop
preceding 1st dc-group. 5TH RND: * Ch 5, sc between 3rd and 4th dc of dc-group; (ch 5, sc
in next loop) 6 times. Repeat form * around. 6TH RND: * Ch 7, sc in next loop. Repeat form
* around. Fasten off.
FIRST ROSETTE: Ch 10, join. 1ST RND: 24 sc in
ring, join. 2ND RND: * Ch 5, skip 3 sc, sc in next sc. Repeat from * around (6 loops). 3RD
RND: In each loop around make sc, half dc, 3 dc, half dc and sc, join. 4TH RND: * Ch 5, sc
in back loop of sc between this and next petal. Repeat from * around (6 loops). 5TH RND:
In each loop around make sc, ch 2, 7 dc, ch 2 and sc, join. 6TH RND: Sl st in each of next
2 ch, sc in same place as last sl st, * ch 5, skip 3 dc, sc in next dc, ch 5, sc in 1st ch
of next ch-2, ch 5, sc in 2nd ch of next ch-2. Repeat form * around, join to 1st sc. 7TH
RND: Sl st to center of 1st loop, sc in same loop, * ch 6, sc in next loop. Repeat from *
around, join. 8TH RND: Sl st to center of 1st loop, sc in same loop. Ch 8, sc in 5th ch
from hook (p), ch 3, sc in next loop (1 p-loop made). * Ch 5, sc in center of 1 loop on
last rnd of center piece, ch 2, sc in 2nd ch of ch-5, ch 3, sc in next loop on rosette.
Repeat from * 5 times (6 loops joined).
SECOND ROSETTE: Work 1st 7 rnds as for first
rosette. 8TH RND: Sl st to center of 1st loop, sc in same loop, make 1 p-loop, then join
to 1st rosette as follows: Ch 5, sc in p of 2nd free loop after last joining on 1st
rosette; (ch 2, sc in 2nd ch of ch-5, ch 3, sc in next loop on rosette, ch 5, sc in next p
on 1st rosette) twice - this 3rd joining is made in the p of the last joining of 1st
rosette to center - ch 2, sc in 2nd ch of ch-5, ch 3, sc in next loop on rosette. Join
next 5 loops of 2nd rosette to next 5 loops on center in same way as 1st rosette was
joined. Make a p-loop in all remaining loops of rosette, join (10 free p-loops). Make 11
more rosettes, joining in same way and taking care to join the last rosette on both sides. |
