Part 18:

I started out using Wine

Note: Work this row if you ended on an uneven row (for example Part 17): CH 2, DC in each st and ch 1 sp, work 2 dc in ch 2 sp, across. Turn (165 dc)

Change Color; I changed to Off White

Row 1: CH 3 (counts as a dc), dc in the next 2 dc, * ch 3, sk the next 3 dc, dc in each of the next 2 dc; repeat from * across, ending with ch 3, sk the next 3 dc, dc in the last 3 dc, dc in top of the turning-ch-3. Turn (32 chain 3 spaces, 69 double crochet Sc = 165 stitches)

 

Change Color; I changed to Wine

Row 2:  CH 6 (counts as dc and ch 3), sk the first 3 sts * working over the ch-2 sp of the previous row (enclosing it inside the chain) dc in the next 3 dc 2 rows below, ch 2, sk next 2 dc; repeat from * across, ending with hdc in top of turning-ch.  Turn
