make a magic loop. Ch1 through the magic loop, work 8 sc into magic loop; join with slst into the first sc leaf 1: a slst into a sc of the leaf center.chain 5 . sc in 2nd chain from hook(remember for each leaf). hdc into next 3. slip stitch into ring to start next leaf leaf 2: chain 7 slip stitch next loops. sc in next loop. hdc in next 4 loops. slip stitch in ring for next leaf leaf 3: ch 10 . slip stitch in next loops. sc in next 2 loops. hdc in next 5 loops. dc in next loop . slip stitch in ring for next leaf leaf 4: ch 13 slip stitch in next loop. sc in next 3 loops. hdc in next 2.dc in next 6 loops. slip stitch in ring for next leaf leaf 5: ch 10 . slip stitch in next loops. sc in next 2 loops. hdc in next 5 loops. dc in next loop . slip stitch in ring for next leaf leaf 6: chain 7 slip stitch next loops. sc in next loop. hdc in next 4 loops. slip stitch in ring for next leaf leaf 7: chain 5 slip stitch next loops. sc in next loop. hdc in next 3 loops. slip stitch in ring leaf 7: chain 5 slip stitch next loops. sc in next loop. hdc in next 3 loops. slip stitch in ring then: chain 7 slip stitch 6 loops.and last slst into first sc of the leaf center fasten off for stem.
