Materials: Worsted Weight Cotton Yarn. Peaches & Crème, about 2 ounces.
I used variegated for both sides of this mat; and a G hook.
Finished Size: The surface inside the ruffles of the Mat holds a six inch dish.
The double thickness is joined so that
the outside ruffles stand-up and make a rim around the dish.
FRONT: Chain 3, join with a sl st to form a ring.
Rnd 1:
Ch 3, work 9 dc in the ring. Join with a sl st to the top of the first
ch-3. (10 dc total).
(FPDC = Front Post Dc)
Rnd 2: Ch 3, FPDC around the post of the dc directly below, (dc in the next dc, FPDC around the post of the same
dc) around. Join with a sl st in the top of the 1st ch-3. (20 sts).
Rnd 3:
Ch 3, dc in the next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC, (dc in the next dc, dc in the next FPDC, work a FPDC
around the same FPDC) repeat 9 times. Join with a sl st in the top of the 1st
ch-3 (30)
Rnd 4:
Ch 3, dc in the next dc, dc in the next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC, (dc in the next 2 dc, dc in the
next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC) repeat 9 times. Join with a sl st
in the top of the 1st ch-3. (40)
Rnd 5: Ch 3, dc in the next 2
dc, dc in the next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC, (dc in the next 3 dc, dc in the next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC) repeat 9 times. Join with
a sl st in the top of the 1st ch-3. (50)
Rnd 6:
Ch 3, dc in the next 3 dc, dc in the next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC, (dc in the next 4 dc, dc in the
next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC) repeat 9 times. Join with a sl st
in the top of the 1st ch-3. (60)
Rnd 7:
Ch 3, dc in the next 4 dc, dc in the next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC, (dc in the next 5 dc, dc in the
next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC) 9 times. Join with a sl st in the
top of the 1st ch-3. (70)
Rnd 8:
Ch 3, dc in the next 5 dc, dc in the next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC, (dc in the next 6 dc, dc in the
next FPDC, work a FPDC around the same FPDC) 9 times. Join with a sl st in the
top of the 1st ch-3. (80)
(FLO = Front Loops Only)
Rnd 9:
Ch 1, sc in the same dc, sl st in FLO in the next 4 dc, ch 3, work 5 more dc in the FLO of the same dc (5 total
dc). (Sl st in the next 4 dc, ch 3, work 4 more dc in the same dc) around. Join with a sl st to the 1st sc.
Finish off and weave in ends.
BACK: Use the same color as for the Front or a contrasting color.
Working in Rounds - -
Rnd 1:
Ch 3, join to form a ring. Work 11 dc in the ring. Join with a sl st in the 1st ch-3 made. (12 dc
total).
Rnd 2: Ch 3, work 2 dc in each dc around. Join as before.
Rnd 3:
Ch 3, dc in the same dc, (dc in the next dc, 2 dc in the next dc) around.
Join as before.
Rnd 4:
Ch 3, dc in the same dc, (dc in the next 2 dc, 2 dc in the next dc) around.
Join as before.
Rnd 5:
Ch 3, dc in the same dc, (dc in the next 3 dc, 2 dc in the next dc) around.
Join as before.
Rnd 6:
Ch 3, dc in the same dc, (dc in the next 4 dc, 2 dc in the next dc) around.
Join as before.
Rnd 7:
Ch 3, dc in the same dc, (dc in the next 5 dc, 2 dc in the next dc) around.
Join as before.
Rnd 8:
Ch 3, dc in the same dc, (dc in the next 6 dc, 2 dc in the next dc) around.
Join as before. Finish off and weave in ends.
JOINING:
Rnd 9:
With Wrong sides together, and holding with the front facing you, join with a sl st in any st. Working through both thicknesses, ch 1, sc in the same st, (sc in the back loops only of each front
and into the corresponding loop of the back piece) around. Join with sl st in
the first sc. Finish off and weave in all ends.
If you would like a Hanging Loop: In any stitch on round 9, chain 14, sl st in the same st and continue with pattern.
