Lacy Baby Blanket Tutorial, Step 7




In the previous step, we left off having done 91 rows of the main pattern.

In this step, we will start making the trim, which consists of 4 rounds. Today, we will make the first one.



Do not turn. Look at the picture below to see in which direction to continue. As you can see, we are going to work into ends of rows. I used red yarn for demonstration purpose.



*ch 1, hdc* in each space across.

I use red yarn to demonstrate it.



And here, I use the main color yarn.



When you get to the end, make {ch 1, hdc} three times into the corner space.



Next, we continue working in the original chain. Here is how it goes here:

*ch 1, hdc into next shell, ch 1, hdc into ch-3 space, ch 1, hdc into next shell, ch 1, hdc into ch-3 space, ch 1, hdc into ch-3 space* across.

That is, we must have 5 hdcs per one pattern repeat. I use red yarn to demonstrate it in the next picture.



And here, I use the main color yarn.



Again, once you get to the end, make {ch 1, hdc} three times into the corner space. 

Next, we work into the end of rows.

*ch 1, hdc* in each space across.

Again, I show it with red yarn



and with the main color yarn. 



And again, we make {ch 1, hdc} three times in the corner space. 

Finally, we continue working into the last row.


*ch 1, hdc into 2nd dc of next shell, ch 1, hdc into space between two shells, ch 1, hdc into 2nd dc of next shell, ch 1, hdc into ch-3 space, ch 1, hdc into ch-3 space* across.


We must have 5 hdcs per one pattern repeat. See the picture below.



And here is what it looks like in the main color.  



When we get to the corner space, we make {ch 1, hdc} only two times as we already made one hdc into the corner space in the beginning of the entire round.

Make a sl st to join with the first hdc.
