8.*VS on next VS, (1 ch, dc in next sp) 7 times, 1 ch, VS in next VS, (1 ch, dc in next sp) 7 times, 1 ch*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st.

9.*VS on next VS, (1 ch, dc in next sp) 8 times, 1 ch, VS in next VS, (1 ch, dc in next sp) 8 times, 1 ch*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st.

10.*VS on next VS, (1 ch, dc in next sp) 9 times, 1 ch, VS in next VS, (1 ch, dc in next sp) 9 times, 1 ch*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st.

11.*sc in VS, (8 ch, sk 2 sp, sc in next dc, sc in next sp, sc in next sp) 2 times, 8 ch, sc in next VS, (sc in next sp, sc in next dc, sc in next sp, 8 ch, sk 2 sp) 2 times, 8 ch*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st.

12.*dtr on next sc, 3 ch, (sc in next sp, 8 ch) 2 times, sc in next sp, 3 ch, dtr in next sp, 3 ch, (sc in next sp, 8 ch) 2 times, sc in next sp, 3 ch*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st.

13.*(dtr, 3 ch, dtr) on next dtr, (5 ch, sc in next sp) 2 times, 5 ch, (dtr, 3 ch, dtr) on next dtr, (5 ch, sc in next sp) 2 times, 5 ch*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st.

14.*3 sc in next 3-ch sp, [(sc, 2 hdc, 2 dc, 2 hdc, sc) in next 5-ch sp] 3 times*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st. Cut thread, weave in ends.

N.B.

• Substitute ever (also if not explicitly said) first st in a row as follows:
  • first sc with 1 ch, sc;
  • first hdc with 2 ch;
  • first dc with 3 ch;
  • first tr with 4 ch...and so on;
• When you read "sl st to <location>", where the location is not immediately contiguous to last st, this means of course "an appropriate number of sl sts for reaching <location>".
• Also if I do not specify it, if you lasted prev row on a st (say st1), while you must start next row in another st (say st2), make an appropriate number of sl sts to reach st2.
