The Butterfly Effect CAL 2019

Part 2

“Scattering with the wind and leaving traces all over the land, some up in the mountains and some washed up in the sand. Their one and only purpose, although hidden, was brightly beaming, when reunited they would spread joy and give life another meaning.”

rnd 18 (A) – start in a ch5-sp before a corner (in this rnd you will be crocheting in the picots from rnd 16 and in the ch-sps on the back, so make sure that you push them through the spaces made in front of them from rnd 17)

*7 dc in ch5-sp, ch3, 7 dc in ch5-sp, ch2, sc in 1st picot3a, [ch1, sc in the next picot3a] x 2, ch2, sc in picot6a, ch2, sc in picot3a, [ch1, sc in picot3a] x 2, ch1, (2 dc, 2 tr) in ch3-sp behind middle leaf section, ch1, ^sc^

^Now this sc you want to place in the picot from rnd 13 (colour C) through the ch-sp in the middle leaf. To do this go through the back of the space in the leaf, catch the picot from the front and make the sc, this will pull the picot up towards the leaf. It might be easier to pull the picot through the ch-sp to complete it, it will still go back to the right side when you keep going.^

ch1, (2 tr, 2 dc) in the next ch3-sp behind the middle leaf section, [ch1, sc in picot3a] x 3, ch2, sc in picot6a, ch2, [sc in picot3a, ch1] x 2, sc in picot3a, ch2; rep from * til end   

per side – 4 tr, 18 dc, 15 sc, 1 ch3-sp, 6 ch2-sp, 12 ch1-sp

rnd 19 (B) – start in any corner ch3-sp

*(2 sc, ch2, 2 sc), sc in the next 7 sts, sc in the ch-sp,

For the flowered section you will crochet in the sc on top of the picot and in the ch-sp behind the picot from rnd 17 and skip the ch-sp between the sc:

[sc, dc in ch-sp] x 3, sk ch2, in sc on top of the picot6a do the following (sc, (dc, ch2, dc) in ch-sp behind, sc), sk ch2, [dc in ch-sp, sc] x 3, 

After the flowered section you are back to crocheting in rnd 18 again, starting in the ch-sp

sc, sc in the next 4 sts, sc in ch-sp, (sc, ch2, sc) in the sc catching the picot, sc in ch-sp, sc in the next 4 sts, sc in ch-sp,

You should be at the second flower bud section at this point:

[sc, dc in ch-sp] x 3, sk ch2, (sc, (dc, ch2, dc) in ch-sp behind, sc) in sc on top of the picot6a, sk ch2, [dc in ch-sp, sc] x 3,

sc in ch-sp, sc in the next 7 sts; rep from * til end

per side – 50 sc, 16 dc, 4 ch2-sp

From wrong side

Sk 8 sts, (2dcCL, ch2, 2dcCL) in ch2-sp, ch2, sk 8 sts, BPsc, BPhdc, BPdc in the next 6 sts, sk 2 sts; rep from * til end

per side – 4 2dcCL, 8 ch2-sp, 18 dc, 4 hdc, 2 sc, 12 BPdc, 2 BPhdc, 2 BPsc (only including the top stitches)

rnd 21

Rnd 22

rnd 22 (A) – start in any corner ch2-sp -in this rnd you will be making chs and only crochet in the ch-sps from the last rnd except in one place just before and after the middle-

*(2dcCL, ch1, 2dcCL, ch2, 2dcCL, ch1, 2dcCL), ch9, 2dcCL in the ch2-sp from rnd 20 catching it from under the ch2-sp above it from rnd 21, ch1, (2dcCL, ch2, 2dcCL) in the ch2-sp from rnd 21, ch1, 2dcCL again infront in the ch2-sp from rnd 20, ch3,

(2dcCL, ch1, 2dcCL) around FPtr st, ch1, (2dcCL, ch1, 2dcCL, ch2, 2dcCL, ch1, 2dcCL) in ch2-sp, ch1, (2dcCL, ch1, 2dcCL) around the st after the FPtr, ch3, 2dcCL in the ch2-sp from rnd 20 catching it from under the ch2-sp above it from rnd 21, ch1, (2dcCL, ch2, 2dcCL) in the ch2-sp from rnd 21, 2dcCL again infront in the ch2-sp from rnd 20, ch9; rep from * til end

rnd 23 (C) – start in any corner ch2-sp

*(2 dc, tr, ch2, tr, 2 dc), FPdc around CL, dc in ch-sp, FPdc around CL, 13 hdc around ch9-sp, ch4,

^^You will now be crocheting up and around the CLs that are on top of each other, to get in the right starting place you will attach the ch4 with a sl st – now this is a little tricky – you want to place it in the sc from rnd 18 placed in the picot6a from rnd 16, you want to reach it from the front of your work but going from behind the ch-sp that is placed in the same spot, when you have made the sl st make a ch2,

2 dc around the ch2-sp from rnd 19 AND the ch4 just made.

Now you start climbing up along the right side of the CLs by making 3 dcs in the right dc of the CL from rnd 20 AND in the ch4, dc again in the right dc of the CL from rnd 20 AND in the ch9, FPdc around CL from rnd 22, dc in ch1, FPdc around CL, (3 dc, tr, ch1, tr, 3 dc) in ch2-sp, FPdc around CL, dc in ch1, FPdc around CL, 6 hdc around ch3,

The hdc in the chains will curl, they are supposed to do this so do not worry!

[FPhdc around CL, hdc in ch] x 3, FPhdc around CL, (2 hdc, ch1, 2 hdc) in ch2-sp, [FPhdc around CL, hdc in ch] x 3, FPhdc around CL, 6 hdc around ch3, ch4,

    Attach the ch4 as described above ^^ and ch2,

2 dc around the ch2-sp from rnd 19 AND the ch4 just made.

Now you start climbing up along the right side of the CLs by making 3 dcs in the right dc of the CL from rnd 20 AND in the ch4-sp, dc again in the right dc of the CL from rnd 20 AND in the ch3 from rnd 22, FPdc around CL from rnd 22, dc in ch1, FPdc around CL, (3 dc, tr, ch1, tr, 3 dc) in ch2-sp, FPdc around CL, dc in ch1, FPdc around CL, 13 hdc around ch9-sp,

FPdc around CL, dc around ch, FPdc around CL; rep from * til end

per side – 6 tr, 34 dc, 48 hdc, 2 sl st, 12 FPdc, 8 FPhdc, 2 ch4, 3 ch2, 3 ch1   

Rnd 23

rnd 24 (D) – start in any corner ch2-sp

*(2 hdc, ch2, 2 hdc), BPsc in the next 6 sts, BPdc in the next 6 sts, sc in the next 4 sts, sc in next st AND in 11th st from rnd 21 directly underneath going through the st from rnd 21 first, sc in the next 2 sts, sc in ch4, sc in rnd 21 behind your work in the st just before the CL sts from rnd 22, sc in the st directly after the CL sts in the same rnd,

Now jump up to the 6hdc ch-sp before the mid of the side

BPsc, BPhdc, BPdc in the next 3 sts, BPhdc, BPsc in the next 9 sts, (sc, ch2, sc) in ch-sp, BPsc in the next 9 sts, BPhdc, BPdc in the next 3 sts, BPhdc, BPsc, sc in the st before the CL sts in rnd 22, sc in the st directly after the CL sts in the same rnd,

Now jump back up to rnd 23, start in the 1st of the 13 hdc in the ch9-sp

sc in the next 2 sts, sc in 11th st from the corner in rnd 21 AND in the next st in rnd 23, sc in the next 4 sts, BPdc in the next 6 sts, BPsc in the next 6 sts; rep from * til end
