Fpdc Cluster: Yo, Insert hook behind post as if to Fpdc, draw up a loop, yo, pull through 2 loops, yo, Insert hook behind next post as if to Fpdc, yo, pull up a loop, yo, pull through all 3 loops.

The quantity of sts is multiple 15 + 3.

1^st row (WS): Dc in fourth chain from hook, Dc in next 3 St, [Ch 2, Skip 3 St, in next St (Dc, Ch 3, Dc), Ch 2, Skip 3 St, Dc in the next 8 St] x2, Ch 2, Skip 3 St, in next St (Dc, Ch 3, Dc), Ch 2, Skip 3 St, Dc in last 4 St;

2^nd row (RS):Ch 3 (counts as first Dc). Turn work. Fpdc in next 2 St, [Ch 2, work 10 Dc in Ch 3 space, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Fpdc in the next 6 Dc, Skip last Dc post)] x2, Ch 2, work 10 Dc in Ch 3 space, Ch 2, Skipping first Dc (3 Fpdc in last 3 Dc);

3^rd row (WS): Ch 3 (counts as first Dc). Turn work. Bpdc in the next St. Skip next Dc post, [Ch 2, Bpdc in next 10 Dc, Ch2, Skip first Dc post, Bpdc in next 4 Dc, Skip lat Dc post] x 2, Ch 2, Bpdc in next 10 Dc, Ch2, Skip first Dc post, Bpdc in last 2 Dc;

4^th row (RS): Ch 5 (counts as first Dc and Ch2), turn, [Fpdc in next 10 Dc, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Fpdc Cluster, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2] x 2,Fpdc in next 10 Dc, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Fpdc in last Dc;

5^th row (WS): Ch 5 (counts as first Dc and Ch 2). Turn work. Dc in same dc as chain 5, [Ch 2. Skip first Dc post, Bpdc in next 8 Dc, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2, Dc in middle of cluster, Ch 3, Dc in middle of cluster again] x2, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Bpdc in next 8 Dc, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2, In 3rd Ch from the bottom (of Ch 5 in Row 4): Dc, Ch 2, Dc in same chain again;

6^th row (RS): Ch 3. Turn work. Dc 4 in Ch 2 space, [Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Fpdc in next 6 Dc, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2, Dc 10 in Ch 3 space] x2, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Fpdc in next 6 Dc, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2, Dc 5 in last Ch space;

7^th row (WS): Ch 3 (counts as first Dc), Turn work. Bpdc in next 4 Dc, [Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Bpdc in next 4 Dc, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2, Bpdc in next 10 Dc] x2, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Bpdc in next 4 Dc, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2, Bpdc in last 5 Dc;

8^th row (RS): Ch 3 (Counts as first Dc), Turn work. Fpdc in next 4 Dc, [Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Fpdc Cluster, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2, Fpdc in next 10 Dc] x2, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Fpdc Cluster, Skip last Dc post, Ch 2, Fpdc in last 5 Dc;

9^th row (WS): Ch 3 (Counts as first Dc), Turn work. Bpdc in next 3 Dc, [Ch 2, Dc in middle of cluster, Ch 3, Dc in middle of cluster again, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Bpdc in next 8 Dc, Skip last Dc post] x2, Ch 2, Dc in middle of cluster, Ch 3, Dc in middle of cluster again, Ch 2, Skip first Dc post, Bpdc in last 4 Dc.

Repeat 2^nd-9^th rows.
