Little Motif

LITTLE MOTIF

Motif

This small Square is very suitable for doing garment. I crocheted a summer vest using a sport-weight cotton yarn, but thread will give it more laciness. Of course, this is only for people with a LOT of patience in sewing and joining!

Size : 8 cm (3 inches) diameter

Material : Pearl cotton # 5, hook 1.7 mm (Boye steel #7), white; you can substitute with Cebelia #10 or equivalent cordonnet thread (but the gauge can slightly vary)

Stitches : ch, sl st, sc, dc, tr.

Difficulty: easy

Directions

Start with 10 ch, join ;

1. in lp work 24 dc ; join with sl st in first dc.

2. * 1 dc, 2 ch, sk st * 12 times; join with sl st in first st.

3. * 3 tr in next 2-ch sp, 1 ch * ;Repeat from * to * 11 times more; join with sl st in first st.

4. * dc on first tr of next 3-tr group, ch, dc on 3rd tr of same group, ch, dc in next sp, ch *; Repeat from * to * 11 times more; join with sl st in first st.

5 . * (sc in next 1-ch sp, 3 ch) 8 times, sc in next sp, 7 ch *; Repeat from * to * all around; join with sl st in first st ;cut thread.

N.B.

Always substitute (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.
