You will need to decide what yarn and hook you will use. Sample done in 8 ply wool and
a 4mm hook
Abbreviations:
CH = Chain, SP = Space, SK = Skip, SL ST = Slip Stitch, DC = Double Crochet (US)
To Start:
CH 4 and join with a SL ST to form a loop.
Row 1:
CH4 (to stand as 1DC and CH1) *1DC into loop, CH1*, Repeat * to * 7 times more. Join
with a SL ST into 3rd CH.
Row 2:
SL ST into first SP, CH3, 1DC into same SP, *CH2, 2DC into next CH SP*, Repeat * to *
7 times more, CH2, Join with a SL ST as before.
Row 3:
SL ST into next DC and into next SP, CH3, 1DC, CH2, 2DC into the same SP, [2DC, CH2,
2DC] (Shell made) into each SP to end of the row. Join as before.
Row 4:
SL ST into next DC, CH3, Shell into next SP, 1DC into next DC, *SK next 2DC, 1DC into
next DC, Shell into next SP, 1DC into next DC* repeat * to * to end of row. Join as
before.
Row 4 forms the pattern so repeat this row as many times as you need to, adding the
extra DCs as they appear, on each side of the pointsNote:
Be sure to always SK the same two stitches and to do the Shell into every point on
every row, unless you think it is getting a bit frilly, then you can do a round with just
1DC, CH2, 1DC into the point.
Every row starts with a SL ST which is the same as the SK stitches.
By row 7 you should have 4DC on each side of the Shell.
Have fun.
Approximately 9” across at this point.
