Used Patterns

Flower: make 24 chain sts and circle them in a ring with 1 slip st. Crochet around the big motif due to the scheme 1. Start the row with 4 chain sts instead of the 1^st treble crochet and finish with 1 slip st in the 4^th initial chain st. Make circle row once;

Square: make in the same way, as flower, but the initial chain should consists of 12 chain sts. Make the small motif due to the scheme 1;

Main pattern: the quantity of sts should be odd. Work due to the scheme 2. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat the needed times, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-3^rd rows once, then repeat 2^nd and 3^rd rows.
