Curtain Insertion / Coaster

Comments:Like Glaze Ice, this motif can be used as an insertion for a curtain (see the comments on that pattern);

Size :13 centimeters ( 5 1/2)

Material :Pearl cotton # 5, hook 1.9 mm (Boye steel#5), dark yellow; a plastic ring about 2 cm. (3/4") diameter; you can substitute with Cebelia #5 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, dc, tr

Difficulty: easy

Directions

Wrap thread on forefinger 4-5 times, insert hk in this loop and work

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

2. *tr in next sc, 3 ch, sk 2 st*; Repeat * to * 12 times, join with sl st to first st.

3. *(3 tr, 1 ch, 3 tr) in next loop*; Repeat * to * 12 times, join with sl st to first st.

4. sl st to 1-ch sp, *sc in next sp, 3 ch, wrap thread on forefinger 8 times, and work in the ring (8 sc, 1 ch, 16 sc, 1 ch, 8 sc), sl st to close the ring, 3 ch*; Repeat * to * 12 times, join with sl st to first st.

5. sl st to 1-ch sp on ring, *sc in next sp, [3 ch, (sc in next sc) 3 times] 5 times on the 16 scs, sc in next sp*; 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.
