3, 11 dc in ring. Sl st in 3rd st of ch-3 first made. =2nd rnd=: Ch
3, * dc in next dc; in next dc make dc, ch 3 and dc. Repeat from *
around, ending with dc at base of ch-3 first made, ch 3, sl st in

ch 3, skip 4 sts, dc in next 3 ch, ch 3, skip 1 dc, dc in next 11 dc.
Repeat from * around. Join. =13th rnd=: Ch 3, * pc st in next dc, dc
in next 4 dc, ch 3, skip 1 dc, dc in next 3 ch, ch 3, skip 4 sts, (dc
in center st of next ch-3, ch 3) twice; skip 4 sts, dc in next 3 ch,
ch 3, skip 1 dc, dc in next 4 dc. Repeat from * around. Join. =14th
