You'll need:

Start making the crown with crochet hook 1,5 due to the scheme A. Increase the size of circle due to the principle of crocheting 5-10 rows to 18 cm diameter, then crochet 8 cm straight. Make the crown fastening with single crochets with crochet hook 1,25. The height of fastening is 1,5 cm. Then, turn to making the pents. Fasten the working yarn 1 row higher than crown fastening (AB line pic. 6). Make 2 single crochets above each chain st. This is the 1st row of your pent. 

Count the amount of single crochets. It's better to have the quantity of sts multipled to 12. To make this, you can increase or decrease the quantity of single crochets 80 in the 2nd row. Make it in the same way, crocheting the scaffolding with single crochets. You should fire the end of scaffolding preliminary and fasten it with slip st to your work. Crochet the same way, as for bourdon. Crochet due to the scheme B from the 3rd row. Before you start crocheting the row with cells, make 2 chain sts of increase, single crochets around the scaffolding, double crochet, then due to the scheme. Make double crochet in the following way: insert your crochet hook under the scaffolding, make yarn over, insert the crochet hook in the top of single crochet, take out the working yarn and make yarn over. Lift the crochet hook with sts above the scaffolding and crochet with double crochets to end of row. Make even rows with single crochets, making increases. Divide the total quantity of sts to 12 and you'll see the periodicity of increases. Make 8-10 stripes and finish with several rows of single crochets. Crochet the last row the same way as the last row of crown, put the scaffolding one more time. Cut off the end of scaffolding.
