Used Patterns

Relief Pattern

The quantity of stitches is multiple of 6 + 1. Work according to the scheme. Start with stitches before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, and finish with stitches after pattern repeat.

Fancy Pattern

• 1^st row: Double crochets, make 3 chain stitches increase instead of the 1^st double crochet;
• 2^nd row: Relief double crochets through back loop, make 2 chain stitches increase instead of the 1^st relief double crochet;
• 3^rd row: Relief double crochet through front loop, make 2 chain stitches increase instead of the 1^st relief double crochet. Make 1^st-3^rd rows once, then repeat 2^nd-3^rd rows.

Chain

Consists of separate parts. For the 1^st part, make 8 chain stitches + 3 chain stitches increase and work with fancy pattern. In 19 cm = 21 rows from the set-up row, finish your work and sew the set-up and final rows. Make the following parts in the same way, but insert them through the previous part before sewing. Totally, make 10 (10) 11 parts and circle them in the ring. For this, insert the last part in the 1^st part before sewing.

Stitches Control

23 stitches x 10 rows = 10 x 10 cm.
