   Starting at center, ch 8; join with sl st. 1st rnd: Ch 3, 15 d c in ring. Join with sl st to 3rd ch of ch-3. 2nd rnd: Ch 6, * tr in next d c, ch 2. Repeat from * around. Join last ch-2 to 4th ch of ch-6. 3rd rnd: Ch 4, tr in next ch-2 sp, * ch 2, tr in same sp, tr in next tr, tr in next ch-2 sp. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 2, tr in same place as last tr, sl st in 4th ch of ch-4. 4th rnd: Picking up the back loop of each tr, make ch 4, * 2 tr in next tr, ch 2, 2 tr in next tr, tr in next tr. Repeat from * around, ending with 2 tr in last tr. Join to 4th ch of ch-4. 5th rnd: Sl st in next 2 tr, s c in next sp, ch 4, tr in same sp, * ch 7, 2 tr in next ch-2 sp. Repeat from * around. Join last ch-7 to 4th ch of ch-4. 6th rnd: Sl st in next tr and in next sp, ch 8, s c in same sp as last sl st, * ch 4, tr in same sp, ch 4, tr in next sp, ch 4, s c in same sp as tr. Repeat from * around. Join last ch-4 to 4th ch of ch-8. 7th rnd: Sl st in next 4 ch, and in next s c, ch 8, skip ch-4 and tr, (s c in next ch-4 loop, ch 4) 4 times; * tr in next s c, ch 4, skip ch-4 and tr, (s c in next ch-4 loop, ch 4), 4 times. Repeat from * around. Join to 4th ch of ch-8 (40 ch-4 sps). 8th rnd: Ch 5, * (in next ch-4 loop make tr, ch 1, and tr, ch 1) 5 times; in next tr make tr, ch 3, and tr, ch 1. Repeat from * around, ending with tr in same place as ch-5 started, ch 3, sl st in 4th ch of ch-5. 9th rnd: S c in next ch-1 sp, ch 5, (tr in next ch-1 sp, ch 1) 9 times, * tr in next ch-1 sp, ch 4, s c in ch-3 sp, ch 4, (tr in next ch-1 sp, ch 1) 10 times. Repeat from * around. Join. 10th rnd: S c in next sp, ch 5, tr in next sp, * ch 1, (tr in next sp, tr in next tr) 5 times; tr in next sp, (ch 1, tr in next sp) twice; (ch 4, s c in next ch-4 loop) twice; ch 4, tr in next ch-1 sp, ch 1, tr in next sp. Repeat from * around. Join. Hereafter pick up only the back loop of each tr throughout. 11th rnd: S c in next sp, ch 4, * tr in next sp, ch 1, skip 1 tr, tr in next 9 tr, (ch 1, tr in next sp) twice; (ch 5, s c in next loop) 3 times; ch 5, tr in next sp, ch 1. Re­peat from * around. Join.
   12th rnd: S c in next sp, ch 4, * tr in next sp, ch 1, skip 1 tr, tr in next 7 tr, (ch 1, tr in next sp) twice; (ch 5, s c in next loop) 4 times; ch 5, tr in next sp, ch 1. Repeat from * around. Join. 13th and 14th rnds: Continue in this manner, making 2 tr less in each tr-group on each rnd, and 1 loop more between each tr-group on each rnd. Join. 15th rnd: S c in next sp, ch 4, * tr in next sp, ch 1, skip 1 tr, tr in next tr, (ch 1, tr in next sp) twice; (ch 5, s c in next loop) 7 times; ch 5, tr in next sp, ch 1. Repeat from * around; join. 16th rnd: S c in next sp, ch 4, * tr in next sp, (ch 1, tr in next sp) twice; (ch 5, s c in next loop) 8 times; ch 5, tr in next sp, ch 1. Re­peat from * around. Join. 17th rnd: S c in next sp, ch 4, * tr in next sp, ch 1, tr in next sp, (ch 5, s c in next loop) 9 times; ch 5, tr in next sp, ch 1. Repeat from * around. Join. 18th rnd: S c in next sp, ch 4, * tr in next sp, (ch 5, s c in next loop) 10 times; ch 5, tr in next sp, ch 1. Repeat from * around. Join. 19th rnd: S c in next sp, ch 9, * (s c in next loop, ch 5) 11 times; tr in next sp, ch 5. Repeat from * around. Join. 20th rnd: Ch 4, 4 tr in next loop, * (ch 3, 3 tr in next loop) 10 times; ch 3, 5 tr in next 2 loops. Repeat from * around. Join. 21st rnd: Ch 4, picking up the back loop of each tr around, make tr in next 4 tr, * ch 2, (s c in next sp, half d c in next tr, d c in next tr, half d c in next tr) 10 times; s c in next sp, ch 2, tr in next 10 tr. Repeat from * around. Join. Fasten off. Block to measurements given.
