Starting at center, ch 10. Join with sl st to form ring. 1st rnd: Ch 1, 20 sc in ring. Sl st in 1st sc made. 2nd rnd: Ch 6 (to count as dc and ch-3), * skip 1 sc, dc in next sc, ch 3. Repeat from * around. Join last ch-3 with sl st to 3rd st of starting chain. 3rd rnd: Sl st in sp, ch 3, 4 dc in same sp, 5 dc in each sp around. Join. 4th rnd: Ch 3, dc in next 4 dc, * ch 1, dc in next 5 dc. Re­peat from * around, ending with ch-1. Join. 5th, 6th and 7th rnds: Ch 3, dc in same place as sl st, * dc in each dc to last dc of group, 2 dc in last dc of group, ch l, 2 dc in next dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 8th rnd: Sl st in next dc, ch 3, dc in next 8 dc, * ch 3, sc in sp between dc-groups, ch 3, skip 1 dc, dc in next 9 dc. Repeat from * around. Join last ch-3 with sl st to 3rd st of starting chain. 9th rnd: Sl st in next dc, ch 3, dc in next 6 dc, * (ch 3, sc in next loop) twice; ch 3, skip 1 dc, dc in next 7 dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 10th rnd: Sl st in next dc, ch 3, dc in next 4 dc, * (ch 3, sc in next loop) 3 times; ch 3, skip 1 dc, dc in next 5 dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 11th rnd: Sl st in next dc, ch 3, dc in next 2 dc, * (ch 3, sc in next loop) 4 times; ch 3, skip 1 dc, dc in next 3 dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 12th rnd: Sl st in next 2 dc and in next ch, ch 1, sc in loop, * ch 4, sc in next loop. Repeat from * around. Join. 13th, 14th and 15th rnds: Sl st to center of loop and make ch-4 loops for 13th rnd; ch-5 loops for 14th rnd and ch-6 for 15th rnd.

     16th rnd: Sl st in loop, ch 3, 4 dc in same loop, * ch 6, 2 sc in next loop, 3 sc in each of next 2 loops, 2 sc in next loop, ch 6, 5 dc in next loop. Repeat from * around. Join. 17th rnd: Sl st in next 2 dc, ch 3, dc in next 2 dc, * ch 6, skip 1 sc, sc in next 8 sc, ch 6, dc in next 2 dc, in next dc make dc, ch 4 and dc; dc in next 2 dc. Repeat from * around, end­ing with dc in each of 3 sl sts, ch 4, sl st in top st of starting chain. 18th rnd: Ch 3, dc in next 2 dc, * ch 6, skip 1 sc, sc in next 6 sc, ch 5, dc in next 3 dc, ch 4, sc in next loop, ch 4, dc in next 3 dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 19th rnd : Ch 3, dc in next 2 dc, * ch 6, skip 1 sc, sc in next 4 sc, ch 6, dc. in next 3 dc, ch 4, sc in next loop, ch 5, sc in next loop, ch 4, dc in next 3 dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 20th rnd: Ch 3, dc in next 2 dc, * ch 6, skip 1 sc, sc in next 2 sc, ch 6, dc in next 3 dc, ch 4, sc in next loop, 15 dc in ch-5 loop, sc in next loop, ch 4, dc in next 3 dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 21st rnd: Ch 3, dc in next 2 dc, * ch 2, skip 1 sc, d tr in next sc, ch 2, dc in next 3 dc, ch 1, dc in next sc, dc in next 7 dc, 2 dc in next dc, dc in next 7 dc, dc in next sc, ch 1, dc in next 3 dc. Repeat from * around. Join. 22nd rnd: Sl st in next 2 dc, the following ch-2 and the d tr, ch 3, 2 dc in same d tr, * ch 3, sc in 3rd ch from hook (p made), 2 dc in ch-1 sp, (p, dc in next 2 dc) 9 times; p, 2 dc in next ch-1 sp, p, 3 dc in d tr, p. Repeat from * around. Join and fasten off.
