6th Rnd: Sl st in next st and next ch-2 sp. (Ch 3. 2 dc cluster. Ch 2) in same sp. (3 dc cluster in next ch-2 sp. Ch 2) twice. *(3 dc cluster. Ch 2. 3 dc cluster. Ch 4. 3 dc cluster. Ch 2. 3 dc cluster. Ch 2) all in next ch-4 sp. (3 dc cluster in next ch-2 sp. Ch 2) 3 times. Skip next ch-2 sp.** (3 dc cluster in next ch-2 sp. Ch 2) 3 times. Rep from * around, ending final rep at **. Join with sl st to top of ch 3.

Cont as established, having 1 more 3 dc cluster between point and valley on each rnd, until work from center to outer point measures approx 25" [63.5 cm]. Fasten off.

Pom Poms (Make 5)

Wind yarn around 4 fingers approx 100 times. Remove from fingers and tie tightly in center.

Cut through each side of loops. Trim to smooth round shape. Attach pom pom to each point of blanket, as shown in photo.

Note: Ch 3 at beg of rnd counts as dc.

Ch 4. Join with sl st to first ch to form ring.

1st Rnd: Ch 3. (Yoh and draw up a loop. Yoh and draw through 2 loops on hook) twice in ring. Yoh and draw through all loops on hook – 2 dc cluster made. Ch 2. *(Yoh and draw up a loop. Yoh and draw through 2 loops on hook) 3 times in ring. Yoh and draw through all loops on hook – 3 dc cluster made. Ch 2. Rep from * 3 times more. Join with sl st to top of ch 3. 5 clusters.

2nd Rnd: Sl st in next st and next ch-2 sp. (Ch 3. 2 dc cluster. Ch 2. 3 dc cluster. Ch 2) all in same sp. *(3 dc cluster. Ch 2. 3 dc cluster. Ch 2) all in next ch-2 sp. Rep from * around. Join with sl st to top of ch 3.

3rd Rnd: As 2nd rnd.
