How to make the flower ampel (plaited) in DROPS Extra 0-1142

Keywords: floral, kitchen,

In this DROPS video we show how you easily can create a beautiful flower ampel. First we work a bottom in double strand in Paris, then measured up 6 lengths with a double strand of 200 cm in each color. Pull through each yarn length with 6 strands into each of the 6 ch-loops and bend the yarn lengths twice (= 12 strands). Plait the parts (= 12 strands = 1 plait x 6 plaits around the bottom). Tie then 2 and 2 plaits, follow video for further instructions. Size / shape of flowerpot you use, determines the distance nodes must have. Tie the strands together in the end, let it be either a tassel or fasten all strands 1 and 1 into the knot.

Buttom:
Work 4 ch with 2 strands in Paris and form a ring with 1 sl st in first ch.
Round 1: Work 1 ch, 8 dc in ch-ring and finish with 1 sl st in ch from beg of round.
Round 2: 3 ch (replace first tr), 2 tr in first dc, 3 tr in each of the next dc the entire round, finish with a sl st in 3rd ch from beg.
Round 3: Work * 2 ch, skip 2 tr and work 2 dc in each of the next 2 tr *, repeat *-* 4 more times and finish with 2 ch, skip 2 tr, 1 dc in next tr and 1 sl st in next tr = 6 ch-loops, cut and fasten off.
