JAPANESE LANTERN No.8634... Edging is done in
individual Sections, joined together by heading and last row of scalloped edge.
Starting at center of one section, ch 8. Joint with sl St. 1st rd: Ch 4, * dc in ring, ch 1. Repeat from
* 12 more times.
Join last ch-1 with sl St
to 3rd st of ch-4 first made.
Hereafter, work in rows,
as follows:
1st row: SI St in sp, ch 4, 2 tr
in same sp holding back on hook the last loop of each tr, thread over and draw
through all loops on hook "a cluster made; * ch 3, 3 tr in next sp
holding back on hook the
last loop of each tr and complete a cluster as before, ch 3, skip next dc and
sp; in next dc make cluster, ch 3 and
cluster; ch 3, skip next sp and dc,
cluster in next sp, ch 3,
cluster in next sp. Ch 1, turn.
2nd row: Sc in tip of 1st cluster,
3 sc in each of next 2 sps, 5 sc in next sp, 3 sc in each of next 2 sps. Fasten
off. Make necessary number of sections.
Now work heading as
follows: Attach thread to 3rd free dc
following cluster, ch 3-to Count as d c, * half dc in next sp, (sc in
next dc, sc in next sp) twice; sc in next dc,
half dc in next sp, dc in
next dc, ch 5, dc in 3rd free dc -following cluster on next section. Repeat
from * across. Fasten off. Work
scalloped edge as follows: Attach thread to
1st sc, * (ch 4, skip 1
sc, sc in next sc) 8 times, sc in 1st sc of next section. Repeat from * across.
Fasten off.
JASMINE No.8637... Starting at one narrow
end, ch 6.
1st row: In 6th ch from hook make 3
dc with ch-2 between. Ch 5, turn.
2nd row: In center dc make 3 dc
with ch-2 between. Ch 5, turn.
Repeat the 2nd row for
desired length. Do not turn at end of last row but work heading across one long
side as follows: * Sc in next ch-5 loop, ch 5. Repeat from * across, ending
with sc in last loop. Fasten off.
SCALLOPED EDGE - Attach thread to 1St
ch-5 loop, 3 sc in loop, * ch 4, sc in 4th ch from hook, (ch 4, sc in same
place as last Sc) twice --3 picots made, 3 sc in same ch-5
loop, ch 2, 3 sc in next
ch-5 loop. Repeat from * across, ending with 3 sc, 3 p's and 3 sc in last loop.
Fasten off.
BEGONIA No.8426... Make a chain slightly
longer than desired length.
1st row: Sc in 9th ch from hook, *
ch 4, skip 3 ch, S c in next ch. Repeat from * across. Ch 4, turn.
2nd row: 3 dc in next loop, * sc in
next loop, ch 6, turn; sc in ch-4 loop, ch 1, turn; in ch-6 loop make (2 sc, ch
3) 3 times; and 2 sc, sc in same loop where the sc following the 3 dc was
made, sc in next loop, ch 4,3 d c in
same loop. Repeat from * across.
Fasten off.
FLEUR-DE-LIS No.8506 . . . Make a chain slightly
longer than desired length.
1st row: Dc in 4th ch from hook, dc
in each ch across. Ch 1, turn.
2nd row: Sc in next dc, * ch 7,
skip 4 c, sc in next dc. Repeat from * across. Ch 7, turn.
3rd and 4th rows: * Sc in next loop, ch
7. Repeat from * across ending with a sc
in last loop. Ch 7, turn.
5th row: *S c in next loop, ch 4. Repeat from * across
ending with sc in last loop. Ch 3, turn.
6th row: In 2nd sc make 2 dc, ch 2
and 2 dc; * ch 2, Sc in next sc, ch 2, in next sc make 2 dc, ch 2 and 2 dc.
Repeat from * across, ending with ch 2, sc in 4th st of turning ch. Ch 1, turn.
7th row: sc in sc, ch 4, * in ch-2
between dc's make 2 dc, ch 2 and 2 dc; ch 4, sc in next sc, ch 4. Repeat from *
across, endingrow with sc in last sc. Fasten off.
MAYFLOWER No.8627... Starting at one narrow end, ch 20.
1st row: In 8th ch from hook make 3
dc, ch 2 and 3 dc; ch 3,skip 3 ch, sc in next ch, ch 3, skip 2 ch, dc in each
of next 3 ch, ch 2, skip 2 ch, dc in next ch. Ch 5, turn.
