The Pattern Crochet edging Foundation round: Chain 42 and join with slip stitch in first chain to form a ring. (The number of stitches has to be a multiple of 6. The Foundation round is a little wider. After the second round the circumference should be about 8 inches.) First round: Chain 3 and work a double crochet in the first loop of the chain stitches. Chain 1 and skip 2 stitches of the set-up round. Work 1 double crochet in the third chain. Now chain 1 and skip two lower chains, then work two double crochets in one chain.
