ea = each

dtr = double treble; wrap yarn around hook 3 times and work off 2 loops at a time.

sc = single crochet

sk = skip

st = stitch

yo = yarn over; wrap yarn around hook

 

ROW 1: ch 3, 12 dc in first st. Join in first dc. (12 sts)

ROW 2: ch 2, 2 dc in same st as join, 2 dc in ea st around. Join in first dc. (24 sts)

ROW 3: ch 2, 2 dc in same sp as join, 1 dc in next st, (2 dc in next st, 1 dc in next st) around. Join in first dc. (36 sts)

ROW 4: ch 2, 2 dc in first st, 1 dc in next 2 sts, (2 dc in next st, 1 dc in next 2 sts) around. Join in first dc. (48 sts)

ROW 5: ch 2, 2 dc in same st as join, 1 dc in next 3 sts, (2 dc in next st, 1 dc in next 3 sts) around. Join in first dc. (60 sts)

2 dtr in 6th ch from hook (3 loops on hook - leave them there)

step 2: sk 5 sts

holding last loop of ea st on hook,

3 dtr in next st (6 loops on hook)

step 3: ch 6,

holding last loop of ea st on hook

2 dtr in 6th ch from hook (3 loops on hook - leave them there)

step 4: holding last loop of ea st on hook

3 dtr in same st as last cluster (6 loops on hook - leave them there)

step 5: sk 5 sts

step 2: ch 6

holding last loop of ea st on hook

2 dtr in 6th st from hook (3 loops on hook - leave them there)

step 3: holding last loop of ea st on hook

3 dtr in same eye as first cluster (6 loops on hook - leave them there)

step 4: holding last loop of ea st on hook

3 dtr in next eye (9 loops on hook)

yo, draw thru 9 loops

ch 1 to close cluster

Repeat steps 2 - 3 - 4 around, ending with

ROW 9: ch 1, sc in same st as join, (2 sc in ch-3 sp, sc in next sc, 2 sc in ch-3 sp) around. Join in first sc.

 

Fasten off and weave in ends.
