Hello, beautiful you,

I am happy to give you the written instructions for this beautiful stitch. The video was released. You can find it here

The stitch is borrowed from a book that I have bought and reproduced after the diagram. Written instructions are done by me.

You will need a repetition of 10 stitches + 1 (if you will work flat) and 6 rows to repeat.

For the sample above, I have used a 3,00 mm (C/2 US; 11 UK). I have started with 37 stitches and I had 11,5 cm and two times repetition of the repetitive rows so, I had 14 rows = 13 cm.

• Beg = begging
• bpdc = back post double crochet
• Ch = chain
• CO = cast on
• dc = double crochet
• fpdc = front post double crochet
• Prev r= previous row
• rep = repeat
• St(s) = stitches

Following instructions are for working flat:

CO a multiple of 10+1 sts

Every beg of the row is created from 1 dc, ch 1 and ends with ch 1, dc in the last stitch.

When you turn your work, fpdc is worked bpdc and bpdc will be worked fpdc.

R1 – setting the stitch

In the 6th st from the hook, work 3 dc,

*(Skip 3 sts and in the 4th st work 3 dc, ch1, 3 dc. Skip 3 sts and in the 4th st, make 1 dc, ch 1, skip one st , make 1 dc)* repeat till you will have 4 sts; work 3 dc in the 3rd st, ch 1 and work a dc in the last st. Ch 1 turn your work

R2 – setting the stitch

Create the beg of the row st, ch 1

In the prev ch1, make 3 dc

Bpdc in the prev dc,

(ch 1, bpdc in the prev dc. Skip prev 3 dc and work the sequence 3dc, ch1, 3dc in the ch1, skip prev 3 dc and work Bpdc in the prev dc, ch 1)-*repeat

bpdc in the prev dc, * repeat

Work 3 dc in the last ch 1 from the prev , ch1, work the last dc, turn

R3 – 1st row of repetitions

Dc, ch1, dc in the prev ch1, fpdc in the prev bpdc, in the prev ch1 make 2 dc *(ch1, 2dc, fpdc in the prev bpdc, dc, ch1, dc in the prev ch1, fpdc in the prev bpdc, dc in the prev ch1)* repeat till the last ch1 and make 1sc, ch1, 1dc, ch1 turn

R4 – 2nd row of repetitions

Dc, ch1, bpdc in the prev fpdc, in the prev ch1 work 3dc *(ch1, 3dc, bpdc in the prev fpdc, ch1, bpdc in the prev fpdc, 3 dc in the prev ch1)* repeat till the end of the row, fpdc in the prev ch1, ch1, 1 dc, ch1 turn

R5 – 3rd row of repetitions

Dc, ch1, fpdc in the prev bpdc, work 3 dc in the prev ch1, *(ch 1, 3 dc, fpdc in the prev bpdc, ch1, fpdc in the prev bpdc, 3 dc in the prev ch1)* rep till the last bpdc and work a fpdc, ch1, dc, ch 1, turn

R6 – 4th row of repetitions

R7 – 5th row of repetitions

Dc, ch1, 3 dc in the prev ch1, *(fpdc in the prev bpdc, ch1, fpdc in the prev bpdc, 3 dc in the prev ch1, ch 1, 3dc, fpdc in the prev bpdc)* rep till the end of the row and in the prev ch1, make 3 dc, ch1, dc, ch 1 turn

R8 – 6th & last row of repetitions

Repeat rows 3 to 8 for as long as you wish.
