Border:
Rd 1: With right side facing, join yarn in marked ch5 space. ch 3, (sc in ch5 sp, ch 3) 9 times.
Rd 2: Slst in first ch-3 sp, ch 1 (sc, ch 5, sc, ch 3, sc) in the same sp 5 (sc, ch 3, sc) in each of thee next 3 ch3 sp, (sc, ch3, sc, ch 5, sc) in next ch 3 sp ( sc, ch3, sc) in each of the next 69 ch -3 sp% ( sc, ch 5, sc, ch 3, sc) in next ch 3 sp. Repeat from % to %, join with sl st in first sc
Joining:
Hold 2 strips wrong side together and bottom to the right, join yarn with sc in first corner ch 5 sp on front strip, ch 3, sc in corresponding corner on back strip. ch 2, *sc in next chain 3 sp on front strip, ch 2, sc in next space on back strip, ch 2* repeat to end, finish off. Join all strips
Edging:
