PATTERN
Using a 6mm hook and 2 strands of yarn make a mc
Round 1: ch 1, hdc 10 into mc (10 hdc), close mc tightly
Helpful hint: do not slip stitch into the 1st hdc, but place your stitch marker in the last hdc of round 1, and make the 1st hdc for round 2 in the 1st hdc of round 1, working in the round, and not in rows means there will be no join, and when we do the border, we will “straighten” the edge.
Round 2: 2 hdc into each st in the round (20 hdc)
Round 3: *2 hdc into next st, hdc* rep 9 more times (30 hdc)
Round 4: *2 hdc into next st, hdc into next 2 sts* rep 9 more times (40 hdc)
Round 5: *2 hdc into next st, hdc into next 3 sts* rep 9 more times (50 hdc)
Round 6: *2 hdc into next st, hdc into next 4 sts* rep 9 more times (60 hdc)
Round 7: hdc into next 60 sts (60 hdc)
Round 8 – 11: repeat round 7 (60 hdc)
Round 12: *2 hdc into next st, hdc into next 9 sts* rep 5 more times (66 hdc)
Round 13: hdc into next 66 sts (66 hdc)
Round 14 – 20: repeat round 13 (66 hdc)
Round 21: hdc into the 3rd loop of next 66 sts (66 hdc)
Round 22: repeat round 2 (66 hdc)
Round 23: hdc into the 3rd loop of next 63 sts (63 hdc), sc into next st, ss into next 2 sts, cut yarn, join with a nj, weave in ends
Helpful hint: the reason I finished the last 3 sts as sc, ss, ss, is to make the last row “straight”, and you can use any join, but I find the needle join finishes the round beautifully, and you won’t easily see where you ended, which makes your work more professional.
