Used Patterns

Circle motif: make 8 chain sts and circle them in the ring with the help of 1 slip st.

Turn to the next row with the help of slip st. Make 1^st-3^rd circle rows x once, make single crochets and treble crochets only around chain sts of the previous circle row. Make every following motif in the same way, as the 1^st one, but connect it with the previous motif in the 3^rd circle row. For this, make 1 slip st around chain st of the neighboring motif instead of chain st due to the scheme. 4 circle motifs with connecting loops, filling motifs and circle edge are stated on the scheme.

Filling motif: make filling motifs separately between 4 circle motifs. Start at arrow A on circle motif and work due to the scheme with double crochets and chain st as connection, finish with 1 slip st in the top of the 1^st double crochet.
