Crochet baktus free pattern01

In this new post I want to show you this baktus crocheted using the (3dc, ch1, 3 dc) shell stitch.

This is a fast and simple project that only uses 120 grs. of yarn. It also has the particularity that is an easy pattern to follow, since you crochet in a continuous way: each row begins  with a shell and ends with half a shell. To continue you just have to ch 6 and begin a new row.

Here you can see the written instructions:


Ch 199 (multiple of 8 + 7).

Rows:

1-Insert hook into the 7th ch from hook and crochet (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc), *ch 3, skip 7 ch, insert hook into the 8th ch and crochet (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc). Repeat from * until end, except in the last ch where you have to crochet 3 dc.

2-Ch 6, (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc) into the ch 1 space of the pevious row. *(3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc) in the next sp. Repeat from * until end, except in the last ch where you have to crochet 3 dc.

3 to 23-Repeat row 2.

24- Ch 6, (3 dc, ch 1, 3 dc) into the ch 1 space of the pevious row. Ch 6, sl st into the next ch 1 space of the previous row.

Edge:

1-Starting in the ch 6 sp of the 1st row of the body. Ch 1, 1 sc into the ch 6 sp, *ch 4, 1 sc into the ch 1 sp of the body, ch 4, 1 sc into the next ch 6 sp, ch 4, 1 sc into the same sp. Repeat from until end, except in corners, where you have to ch 6 instead of 4 (see chart bellow). Sl st into de 1st sc.

 2-Ch 1, (1 sc, 2 hdc, 1 sc) in each ch 4 sp of the previos row, except in corners, where you have to ch 3 before and then continue with (1 sc, 2 hdc, 1 sc). Sl st into de 1st sc.
