Ch 10, join with sl st to form ring. 1st rnd: Ch 4 (to count as tr), 35 tr in ring. Join with sl st to 4th ch of ch-4. 2nd rnd: Ch 4, tr in next 2 tr, (ch 7, skip 3 tr, tr in next 3 tr) 5 times; ch 7. Join. 3rd rnd: Ch 3, dc in next 2 tr, * 10 dc in next loop, dc in next 3 tr. Repeat from * around. Join. 4th rnd: Ch 4, tr in next 2 dc, * ch 7, skip 5 dc, tr between this and 6th dc, ch 7, skip 5 dc, tr in next 3 dc. Repeat from * around (12 sps). Join. 5th rnd: Ch 3, dc in next 2 tr, * 10 dc in next loop, dc in next tr, 10 dc in next loop, dc in next 3 tr. Repeat from * around. Join 6th rnd: Sl st in next 7 dc and between 7th and 8th dc, ch 21, * skip 11 dc, tr tr between this and 12th dc, ch 13. Repeat from * around. Join. 7th rnd: Ch 7, holding back on hook the last loop of each tr tr make 4 tr tr in same place as sl st, thread over and draw through all loops on hook (a cluster made), * ch 9, d tr in next loop, ch 9, holding back on hook the last loop of each tr tr make 5 tr tr in next tr tr, thread over and draw through all loops on hook. Repeat from * around. Join. 8th rnd: Ch 16, * cluster in next d tr, ch 11, d tr in tip of next cluster, ch 11. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 5, d tr in 5th ch of starting ch-16. 9th rnd: Ch 19, * tr tr in next loop, ch 13. Repeat from * around. Join with sl st to 6th ch of starting ch-19. 10th rnd: Sl st in next loop, ch 3, 14 dc in same loop, 15 dc in each loop around. Join.
   11th rnd: Sc in same place as sl st, * ch 3, skip 1 dc, sc in next dc. Repeat from * around. 12th, 13th and 14th rnds: * Sc in next loop, ch 3. Repeat from * around. 15th rnd: Sl st in next loop, * ch 4, skip 1 loop, in next loop make tr, ch 5 and tr; ch 4, skip 1 loop, sc in next loop, (ch 2, sc in next loop) 11 times. Repeat from * around to within last 2 loops. There are 12 (tr, ch 5 and tr) in rnd. 16th rnd: * Ch 5, d tr in next ch-4 loop, ch 5, holding back on hook the last loop of each d tr make 4 d tr in next loop, thread over and draw through all loops on hook (a cluster made), ch 5, cluster in same loop, ch 5, d tr in next loop, ch 5, skip two ch-2 loops, (sc in next loop, ch 2) 6 times; sc in next loop. Repeat from * around to within last two ch-2 loops. There are 12 cluster groups in rnd. 17th rnd: * (Ch 5, cluster in next ch-5 loop, ch 5, in next loop make cluster, ch 5 and cluster) twice; ch 5, cluster in next loop, ch 5, skip two ch-2 loops, sc in next loop, ch 2, sc in next loop. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 5, skip two ch-2 loops, sc in next loop, ch 2, sc in next loop. Join. 18th rnd: * 7 sc in next 8 loops, sc in ch-2 loop. Repeat from * around. Join. 19th rnd: Sl st in first 3 sc, sc in next sc, (ch 7, skip 6 sc, sc in next sc) 7 times; * sc in next 5 sc, ch 3, sc in last ch-7 loop, ch 4, skip 6 sc, sc in next sc, (ch 7, skip 6 sc, sc in next sc) 6 times. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 4, skip 6 sc, dc in next sc. Join to 3rd ch of ch-7. 20th rnd: Sc in same place as sl st, * (ch 11, sc in next loop) 5 times; ch 11, sc under joining of chains. Repeat from * around. Join and break off.
