Size : 28 cm ( 11 inches) diameter

Material: Pearl cotton # 8 , hook 1.25 mm (US steel 10 #); you can substitute with Cebelia #20 or equivalent ecosse or cordonnet thread (but the gauge can slightly vary); Please visit my Virtual Store id you need materials.

Stitches (for reference look at my stitches page):

 

ch, sc, dc, tr, dtr
dc cluster = dcl = (dc not closed on next st) 2 times, close the 2 st together.
Picot = 3 ch, sc in first ch.
tr cluster = trcl = (tr not closed on next st) 5 times, close the 5 st together.
V stitch = vst = (dc, 2 ch, dc) in same sp/st

Difficulty: Medium / difficult.
