Sl st at the end to finish off the cone.
Clover shaped leaves pattern
You will be making these leaves in this order [clover], sc, sc all the way around the front loops of the even rounds of the cone.
This clover shaped leaf, is basically a Chain-3 picot. All you have to do is, [ Chain 3, sl st to the back side of Chain 1 ] rep 3 times. Please refer video to help you understand better.
You can go all the way around as you please and wherever you want it, or you can follow an order, it is going to look great on the Christmas tree no matter what.
This picture below shows you how you can, jump from one row to the next. Basically you are working in spirals, just hop onto the other row, without any stitches in between.
Say if I started with a clover [(clover), sc, sc] for the previous round, I make sure I start with [sc, sc, (clover)] for the next round. Alternate between the two for best results.
Happy holidays!
Really sweet Christmas tree, am about to make one. Thank you for the free pattern!
