Comments:A delicious small motif to use as a coaster or as a piece of a big thread project.

Size : 10 cm (4")

Material :Pearl cotton # 8, hook 1.25 mm (Bates steel #9), color white; you can substitute with Cebelia #20 or equivalent cordonnet thread (but the gauge can slightly vary); you may want to give a look to my virtual store if you need materials.

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

Difficulty:easy/medium

Start with 10 ch

1. 36 tr in loop; join with sl st to first st.

2.*sc in next tr, 8 ch, sk a tr, sc in next tr* ; Repeat * to * 11 times, finish with sc in next tr, 4 ch tr in first sc.

3.*(tr, 3 ch, tr ) in next sp, 3 ch*; Repeat * to * 12 times, join with sl st to first tr.

4.3 sc in ea space, sc in ea tr, all around.

5.*hdc in next sc*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st.

6.*tr in next hdc*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st.

7.*sc in next tr, 5 ch, sk a tr*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st

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

9.*7 dc in next space, sk a space, sc between next two dc, sk a space*; Repeat * to * all around, join with sl st to first st

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.
