Ch 3, turn. 3rd row: 1 bl, 3 sps, 8 bls, 2 sps, ch 2, foundation d c in 3rd st of turning ch—to make a foundation d c, thread over, insert hook in st and draw loop through; thread over and draw through 1 loop, thus making a ch st; finish as for a d c. Make 2 more foundation d c by inserting hook in ch-1 of previous d c, then make 1 d c in the usual way (1 bl increased). Ch 3, turn. Starting at 4th row, follow chart to top. Then repeat entire design for desired length.
