Make 4 pattern repeats in height (17 cm), then, starting from the 1st row of new pattern repeat, start making the crown.

Crown

Change to double pointed needles 4.

1st row: * 3 purls, 3 knit sts, knit 2 tog with right decline, 9 knit sts*, knit the last st in the 5th cable together with the 1st purl of the 2nd row as knit st with left decline;

2nd row: * 1 purl, knit 2 tog with right decline, 2 knit sts, knit 2 tog with left decline, 7 knit sts, knit 2 tog with left decline*;

3rd row: * knit 2 tog with right decline, 2 knit sts, knit 2 tog with left decline, 7 knit sts*.

Make decreases in the rest of the rows of each cable in 2 places:

In the middle of cable, knit 2 tog with left decline;

In the end of cable knit the last st of the 1st cable together with the 1st st of the 2nd cable.

Then, decrease the sts, continue connecting sts together (knit 2 tog with left decline) in the places, where you see broaching cables due to the ornament.

Stop when there'll be 8-12 sts left on the knitting needles in order to tighten them. Cut the yarn 10 cm. By means of crochet hook draw this yarn through all the sts on the knitting needles and tighten. Fasten and cut the yarn.
