Edging
Note: To work sc evenly spaced across long edge, designer recommends working 1 sc in the end of every other row and 2 sc in the end of every other row, until the indicated stitch count is achieved.
Round 1 (right side): With right side still facing, and working in ends of rows across long edge, 3 sc in corner, work 113 sc evenly spaced across long edge, 3 sc in corner; working across opposite side of foundation ch, skip first ch (corner), sc in next 105 ch, 3 sc in corner; working in ends of rows across next long edge, work 113 sc evenly spaced across long edge, 3 sc in corner; working across sts of last row, skip first st (corner), sc in next 105 sts; join with slip st in first sc—448 sc.
Round 2: Slip st in next sc (center sc of 3-sc corner), ch 3 (counts as first dc here and throughout), 2 dc in same sc, **ch 2, skip next st, dc in next st, ch 2, skip next 2 sts, dc in next 3 sts, *ch 2, skip next 2 sts, dc in next st, ch 2, skip next 2 sts, dc in next 3 sts; repeat from * to 3 sts before next 3-sc corner, ch 2, skip next 2 sts, dc in next st, ch 2, skip next st ***, 3 dc in next st (center sc of 3-sc corner); repeat from ** 3 more times ending last repeat at ***; join with slip st in top of beginning ch.
Round 3: Slip st in next dc (center dc of 3-dc corner), ch 3, (2 dc, ch 3, 3 dc) in same dc, **ch 2, skip next ch-2 space, sc in next dc, *ch 2, skip next ch-2 space, skip next dc, (2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc) in next dc (center dc of 3-dc group), ch 2, skip next dc, skip next ch-2 space, sc in next dc; repeat from * across to ch-2 space before next 3-dc corner, ch 2, skip next ch-2 space, skip next dc ***, (3 dc, ch 3, 3 dc) in center dc of 3-dc corner; repeat from ** 3 more times ending last repeat at ***; join with slip st in top of beginning ch. Note: You should have 13 (2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc) shells between corner shells across each short edge, and 14 (2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc) shells between corner shells across each long edge.

Round 5: Slip st in next 2 dc, (sc, ch 2, sc, ch 3, sc, ch 2, sc) in corner ch-3 space, **ch 3, skip next ch-2 space, (dc, ch 1, dc) in next dc (V-st made), *ch 3, skip next ch-2 space, (sc, ch 3, sc) in next ch-2 space (center ch-2 space of (3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc) shell), ch 3, skip next ch-2 space, (dc, ch 1, dc) in next dc; repeat from * across to ch-2 space before next corner, ch 3, skip next ch-2 space ***, (sc, ch 2, sc, ch 3, sc, ch 2, sc) in corner ch-3 space; repeat from ** 3 more times ending last repeat at ***; join with slip st in first sc.
