PART TWO:

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• READ the instructions through first;
• special stitches are noted and linked to tutorials (if necessary) for each part;
• please check your stitch count!
• This project is worked in the round and size WILL depend on YOUR hook, YOUR yarn and YOUR tension.
• I use US Crochet stitch terminology.

Size: approx 29 cm (11 inches) in width – this will differ depending on hook and yarn used.

My Hook:
3.25 mm (D)

Abbreviations: 
CH – chain
SL ST – slip stitch
SC – single crochet
HDC – half double crochet
DC – double crochet
TR – treble crochet
BLP – back loop

INSTRUCTIONS:

Notes: On color changing – I used 10 g mini balls of yarn – so I continued on with a new color wherever the old one ended. So my color changes are irregular. This is COMPLETELY OPTIONAL.
You can change color at the start of each round/or at the start of a new stitch variation.
This is completely up to you!

For this second section I used approx 40 g of yarn – 4 x 10 g;
I did NOT fasten off after the last round because I continued with my yarn for the first round of section 3!

You will CH 2 at the START of each round – this DOES NOT COUNT as a stitch – you will mark the Stitch AFTER the 2 CH.

RND 16: CH 2; *work 1 DC into top of first 3DCtog; work 1 DC into each of next 2 CH.*
Repeat from * to ** 33 more times; SL ST into FIRST DC worked.
(102 DC)

Special Stitch:
Cluster – work 3DCtog (3 Double Crochet Stitches together) into SAME space; CH 1 to close cluster.
Note – to avoid confusion – the CH 1 to close the cluster is NOT the same CH 1 as in the instructions;
the cluster CH 1 is part of the STITCH -the CH 1 in the instructions below is part of the round!

RND 17: CH 2; work Cluster into FIRST DC; CH 1; SKIP next DC. *Work Cluster into next DC; CH 1; SKIP next DC.** Repeat from * to ** 49 more times; SL ST into FIRST DC worked.
(51 x Clusters; 51 x 1 CH spaces)

Special Stitch:
FPDC – front post double crochet

RND 18: CH 2; *work FPDC around next Cluster; CH 1.**
Repeat from * to ** 50 more times; SL ST into FIRST FPDC worked.
(51 x FPDC; 51 x 1 CH spaces)

RND 19: CH 2; work Cluster into FIRST FPDC; CH 1. *Work Cluster into next FPDC; CH 1.**
Repeat from * to ** 49 more times; SL ST into first FPDC.

RND 20: repeat RND 18.

RND 21: CH 2; work 1 DC into FIRST FPDC; work 1 DC into next 1 CH. *Work 1 DC into next FPDC; work 1 DC into next 1 CH.** Repeat from * to ** all around; SL ST into first DC worked.

Special Stitch:

RND 22: CH 2; work V-ST into FIRST DC; SKIP 2 DC. *Work V-ST into next DC; SKIP 2 DC.**
Repeat from * to ** 49 more times; SL ST into CH space of FIRST V-ST.
(34 x V-ST)

Note: you will be working a V-ST into the CH space of the previous round’s V-ST.

RND 23,24 and 25: CH 2; work V-ST into join space; (work V-ST into next V-ST) x 33;
SL ST into CH space of FIRST V-ST.
