Row 2: Chain 3 and work one double crochet into the first stitch. *Chain 3 and continue with 3 double crochets worked into the 3 stitches we skipped in the foundation chain, wrapping the chain space created in the first row*. Repeat from * to * until there is 1 stitch left. Finish the row with a double crochet.
Row 3: Chain 3, work a double crochet into the first stitch. *Work 3 double crochets into the 3 double crochets of the first row, wrapping the chain space in the second row.
