That's all. I've added a very simple embelishment - small crochet flower - but you may add whatever you want or keep it simple without anything.

The pattern for the flower:
In magic circle dc 10, ss in first dc. [ch 1, dc, dc, hdc] in same st, ss in next st, then repeat 4 times * [hdc, dc, dc, hdc] in same st, ss in next st *. End with ss in the first ch 1.

    2. If you can't make a MAGIC CIRCLE, then make a chain of three and join with a slip st in first chain. Then, dc 10 & join. Go ahead and start row 2 with your "Ch 2", etc.

  3. Hi Cynthia.
    You have to make 10 dc in magic circle and then join the circle with a slip stitch. There are plenty of detailed tutorials and videos in internet how to make a magic circle in case you don't know it.

  5. is there a video tutorial for the "special stitch" in this pattern? I have crocheted advanced patterns before but for the life of me I can't understand your explanation for this stitch. Please help!!!:)

  6. The rows where you do the fpdc and dcs in the row below the sc row - do you only do the fpdcs in the row below and the regular dc's in the sc row stitches? I'm a bit confused.

  7. Row 14 has me baffled. DC in the DC?? There is a SC on top of the DC, so do I encompass the SC when I work the DC? Where exactly do I put my hook? FPDC in the SC between the previous sts?? I am lost here.

    1. Ups, english is not my language.
      You basically repeat again dc and fpdc like in row 12 but this time the fpdc goes in the dc under the sc row st, the dc stitch is in the next dc (there should be fpdc below the sc row).

  8. Row 12 has me baffled, also.It's hard to see the single crochets in order to put in the double crochets
