Join. 3rd rnd: Ch 3, dc in same place as sl st, 2 dc in each dc around. Join. 4th rnd: Ch 3, dc in each dc around. Join. 5th rnd: Sc in same place as sl st, * ch 3, skip 1 dc, sc in next dc. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 3, sl st in first sc. 6th rnd: Sl st in next ch, sc in loop, ch 7, * tr in next loop, ch 3. Repeat from * around. Join last ch 3 to 4th ch of ch-7. 7th rnd: Sl st in next ch, sc in same sp, * ch 4, sc in next sp. Repeat from * around. Join. 8th rnd: Sl st in next 2 ch, sc in same loop, ch 6, * dc in next loop, ch 3. Repeat from * around. Join last ch 3 to 3rd ch of ch-6. 9th rnd: Ch 4, tr in same place as sl st, * ch 3, 2 tr in next dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 10th rnd: Ch 4, * 2 tr in next tr, ch 3, tr in next tr. Repeat from * around. Join. 11th rnd: Ch 4, tr in next 2 tr, * ch 4, tr in next 3 tr. Repeat from * around. Join. 12th to 15th rnds incl: Repeat 11th rnd, hav­ing ch-4 between tr-groups on 12th rnd, ch-5 on 13th rnd, ch-6 on 14th and 15th rnds. 16th rnd: Ch 4, tr in next 2 tr, * ch 5, (3 tr in next tr) 3 times; ch 5, tr in next 3 tr.
