Repeat from * around, ending with ch 4, dc in first sc. 2nd rnd: * (Ch 1, dc in next dc) 10 times (for scallop); ch 1, (sc in next loop, ch 7) 7 times; sc in next loop. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 4, dc in dc to join. 3rd rnd: * (2 dc in next ch-1 sp) 11 times; (sc in next loop, ch 7) 6 times; sc in next loop. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 4. Join as before. 4th rnd: * (Ch 2, dc in next dc, skip next dc) 5 times; (ch 2, dc in next dc) twice, (ch 2, skip next dc, dc in next dc) 5 times; ch 2, (sc in next loop, ch 7) 5 times; sc in next loop.

Join. 6th rnd: * Ch 2, dc in next dc, (ch 2, skip next dc, dc in next dc) 3 times; ** ch 2, dc in next dc, (ch 2, skip next dc, dc in next dc) twice. Repeat from ** 3 times more, ch 2, skip next dc, dc in next dc, ch 2; sc in next loop, (ch 7, sc in next loop) 3 times. Repeat from * around. Join. 7th rnd: * 3 dc in next sp, 2 dc in each of next 3 sps, (3 dc in next sp, 2 dc in each of next 2 sps) 4 times; 2 dc in next sp, 3 dc in next sp; sc in next loop, (ch 8, sc in next loop) twice.

Repeat from ** 3 times more, ch 2, dc in next dc, ch 2, skip next dc, dc in next dc, ch 2, sc in next loop, ch 8, sc in next loop. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 8, sl st in tr. 9th rnd: Sl st in next ch, sc in first sp, * (ch 3, sc in next sp) 24 times; ch 3, in next loop make (sc, ch 3) twice; sc in next sp. Repeat from * around, ending with sl st in first sc. Break off.

CENTER MOTIF … Starting at center, ch 4. 1st rnd: 11 dc in 4th ch from hook. Join with sl st to top of ch-4. 2nd rnd: Ch 4, dc in same place as sl st, * ch 1, dc in next dc, in next dc make (ch 1, dc) twice. Repeat from * around, ending with ch 1. Join to 3rd ch of ch-4. 3rd rnd: Sl st in first sp, ch 3, 2 dc in same sp, * 2 dc in each of next 2 sps, 3 dc in next sp. Repeat from * around. Join. 4th rnd: Ch 5, * dc in next dc, ch 2, skip next dc, dc in next dc, ch 2. Repeat from * around. Join to 3rd ch of ch-5. 5th rnd: Sl st in next ch, sc in same sp, * ch 4, sc in next sp.
