Crochet DROPS round carpet in 3 threads Paris. TIPS: The carpet can be crochet to desired measure.

We made a smaller carpet that measures approx 83 cm in diameter and one a bit larger that measures approx 125 cm in diameter. For the small carpet you need 700 g Paris as explained above, and for the larger one you need approx 1300 g Paris. CROCHET INFO: On every round with tr beg round with 3 ch. Finish round with 1 sl st in 3rd ch from beg of round (see separate explanation on round with PATTERN A.1 and A.2). PATTERN A.1 (divisible by 4 sts): Pattern consists of 4 rounds and diagram A.1 shows 5th and 6th round in pattern. Work as follows: ROUND 5: 4 ch (= 1 tr + 1 ch), skip 1 tr, in next tr work 1 tr + 7 ch + 1 tr, 1 ch, skip 1 tr, 1 tr in next tr, then work pattern according to A.1 as follows: * 1 ch, skip 1 tr, in next tr work 1 tr + 7 ch + 1 tr, 1 ch, skip 1 tr **, 1 tr in next tr *, repeat from *-* but finish last repetition after **, then work 1 sl st in 3rd ch from beg of round. ROUND 6: Work according to diagram A.1 as follows: * Work 7 tr in next ch-loop, work 1 dc in next tr *, repeat from *-* the entire round and finish with 1 sl st in first tr from beg of round = 12 tr-groups. ROUND 7: Work 1 sl st in each of the next 2 tr, 1 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr in tr-group, * 7 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr on next tr-group *, repeat from *-* 11 times in total, finish with 7 ch and 1 sl st in first dc from beg of round = 12 ch-loops and 96 sts in total on round. ROUND 8: 3 ch (= 1 tr), * 1 ch, skip 1 st, 1 tr in next st *, repeat from *-* the entire round and finish with 1 ch and 1 sl st in 3rd ch from beg of round = 48 tr and 1 ch between every tr (= 96 sts in total on round). PATTERN A.2 (divisible by 6 sts): Pattern consists of 4 rounds and diagram A.2 shows 14th and 15th round in pattern. Work as follows: ROUND 14: 4 ch (= 1 tr + 1 ch), skip 2 tr, in next tr work 1 tr + 7 ch + 1 tr, 1 ch, skip 2 tr, 1 tr in next tr, then work pattern according to A.2 as follows: * 1 ch, skip 2 tr, in next tr work 1 tr + 7 ch + 1 tr, 1 ch, skip 2 tr **, 1 tr in next tr *, repeat from *-* but finish last repetition after **, then work 1 sl st in 3rd ch from beg of round. ROUND 15: Work according to diagram A.2 as follows: * Work 7 tr in next ch-loop, work 1 dc in next tr *, repeat from *-* the entire round and finish with 1 sl st in first tr from beg of round = 26 tr-groups. ROUND 16: Work 1 sl st in each of the next 2 tr, 1 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr in tr-group, * 7 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr in next tr-group, 7 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr on next tr-group, 6 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr on next tr-group, 7 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr on next tr-group, 7 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr on next tr-group, 7 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr on next tr-group *, repeat from *-* 4 times in total, 7 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr on next tr-group, 7 ch and 1 sl st in first dc from beg of round = 26 ch-loops and 204 sts in total on round. ROUND 17: 3 ch (= 1 tr), * 1 ch, skip 1 st, 1 tr in next st *, repeat from *-* the entire round and finish with 1 ch and 1 sl st in 3rd ch from beg of round = 102 tr and 1 ch between every tr (= 204 sts in total on round). -------------------------------------------------------CARPET: Crochet 4 ch on hook size 8 mm with 3 threads Paris and form a ring with 1 sl st in first ch. ROUND 1: Read CROCHET INFO! Work 12 tr in ch-ring. ROUND 2: Work 2 tr in every tr = 24 tr. ROUND 3: * 2 tr in first tr, 1 tr in next tr *, repeat from *-* the entire round = 36 tr. ROUND 4: * 2 tr in first tr, 1 tr in each of the next 2 tr *, repeat from *-* the entire round = 48 tr.

ROUND 5-8: Work PATTERN A.1 - see explanation above. ROUND 9: Remember CROCHET INFO! Work * 2 tr in first st, 1 tr in each of the next 7 sts *, repeat from *-* the entire round = 108 tr. ROUND 10: * 2 tr in first st, 1 tr in each of the next 8 sts *, repeat from *-* the entire round = 120 tr. ROUND 11-13: Continue inc as on round 9 and 10 (i.e. on every round worked, work 1 tr more between every time 2 tr are worked in same st = 12 sts inc per round). After 13th round there are 156 tr on round. ROUND 14-17: Work PATTERN A.2 - see explanation above. ROUND 18: * 2 tr in first st, 1 tr in each of the next 16 sts *, repeat from *-* the entire round = 216 tr. Cut and fasten the threads. LARGER CARPET: If you want a larger carpet, continue after 18th round on carpet as follows: Continue inc as on round 18, i.e. on every round worked, work 1 tr more between every time 2 tr are worked in same st = 12 sts inc per round. When piece is at desired measurements, work according to diagram A.2 (= 2 rounds). After A.2 work the last 3 rounds on carpet as follows: ROUND 1: Work 1 sl st in each of the next 2 tr, 1 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr in tr-group, * 7 ch, 1 dc in 4th tr on next tr-group *, repeat from *-* the entire round and finish with 7 ch and 1 sl st in first dc from beg of round. ROUND 2: 3 ch (= 1st tr), * 1 ch, skip 1 st, 1 tr in next st *, repeat from *-* the entire round and finish with 1 ch and 1 sl st in 3rd ch from beg of round. ROUND 3: 3 ch, then work 1 tr in every st the entire round while AT THE SAME TIME inc 12 tr evenly (inc 1 tr by working 2 tr in same st). Cut and fasten the threads.
