9th Row: Ch 3, 1 d c in each of the next 3 d c keeping last loop of each d c on hook, thread over and pull through all loops at one time, * ch 5, d c in next loop, ch 5, d c in next loop, ch 5, d c in next loop, ch 5, 1 d c in each of the next 4 d c keeping last loop of each d c on hook, thread over and pull through all loops at one time, ch 5, tr c in next tr c, ch 5, tr c in next tr c, ch 5, 2 cluster sts with ch 7 between in next loop (corner), ch 5, tr c in next tr c, ch 5, tr c in next tr c, ch 5, 1 d c in each of the next 4 d c keeping last loop of each d c on hook, thread over and pull through all loops at one time, repeat from * all around in same manner ending to correspond, join, cut thread.
Work a 2nd motif in same manner joining it to 1st motif in last row as follows: ch 3, 1 d c in each of the next 3 d c keeping last loop of each d c on hook, thread over and pull through all loops at one time, ch 5, d c in next loop, ch 5, d c in next loop, ch 5, d c in next loop, ch 5, 1 d c in each of the next 4 d c keeping last loop of each d c on hook, thread over and pull through all loops at one time, ch 5, tr c in next tr c, ch 5, tr c in next tr c, ch 5, cluster st in next loop, ch 3, join to corresponding corner loop of 1st motif, ch 3, cluster st in same space of 2nd motif, ch 5, tr c in next tr c, ch 2, skip 1 loop of 1st motif, s c in next loop, ch 2, tr c in next tr c of 2nd motif, ch 5, 1 d c in each of the next 4 d c keeping last loop of each d c on hook, thread over and pull through all loops at one time, ch 2, skip 1 loop of 1st motif, s c in next loop, ch 2, d c in next loop of 2nd motif, * ch 2, s c in next loop of 1st motif, ch 2, d c in next loop of 2nd motif, repeat from * once, ch 2, s c in next loop of 1st motif, ch 2, 1 d c in each of the next 4 d c of 2nd motif keeping last loop of each d c on hook, thread over and pull through all loops at one time, ch 5, tr c in next tr c of 2nd motif, ch 2, skip 1 loop of 1st motif, s c in next loop, ch 2, tr c in next tr c of 2nd motif, ch 5, cluster st in next loop, ch 3, join to corner loop of 1st motif, ch 3, cluster st in same space of 2nd motif, ch 5, tr c in next tr c and complete row same as 1st motif. Join all motifs in some manner.
