Round 4-10: Follow in the same manner of increasing by adding one stitch each round until you have a reached an increase of 9. *Example: *1 hdc in each of the next 2 sts, 2 hdc in the next*, and then *1 hdc in each of the next 3 sts, 2 hdc in the next*, and so on until you have 9 hdc in between each 2 hdc.
Round 11: Ch 2, sk over the joining st, 1 dc in the next st, 1 dc in the joining st (creating a criss cross look). *Sk 1 st, 1 dc in the next st, 1 dc back into the skipped st*, repeat from * across. Join with a sl st to the dc closest to your hook (which is technically the second dc you made at the beginning.
Round 12: Ch 2, 1 hdc in each st around. Join with a sl st to the first hdc.
