Hot Plate Mat Pattern

With White chain (ch) 56, double crochet (dc) in 4th stitch (st) from hook, 1 dc in each of the next 51 sts of ch, 3 dc in end st of ch, working on opposite side of ch work 1 dc in each st and 1 dc in same space as 1st dc, join in 3rd st of ch.

Ch 3 (always counts as 1 dc at beginning of round), dc in same space, 2 dc in each of the next 2 dc, 1 dc in each of the next 49 dc, 2 dc in each of the next 2 dc, 3 dc in next dc, 2 dc in each of the next 2 dc, 1 dc in each of the next 49 dc, 2 dc in each of the next 2 dc, dc in same space as 1st dc, join in 3rd st of ch.

Ch 4, dc in next dc, * ch 1, dc in next dc, repeat from * 3 times, * ch 1, skip next dc, dc in next dc, repeat from * 24 times, * ch 1, dc in next dc, repeat from * 9 times, * ch 1, skip next dc, dc in next dc, repeat from * 24 times, * ch 1, dc in next dc, repeat from * 3 times, ch 1, join in 3rd st of ch.

Ch 5, dc in next dc, * ch 2, dc in next dc, repeat from * 3 times (5 — ch 2 meshes made), * ch 1, dc in next dc, repeat from * 24 times (25 — ch 1 meshes made), work 10 — ch 2 meshes, work 25 — ch 1 meshes, work 4 — ch 2 meshes, ch 2, join in 3rd st of ch.

Ch 6, dc in next dc, * ch 3, dc in next dc, repeat from * once (3 — ch 3 meshes made), * work 4 — ch 2 meshes, 21 — ch 1 meshes, 4 — ch 2 meshes, 6 — ch 3 meshes, repeat from * once but ending repeat with 2 — ch 3 meshes, ch 3, join in 3rd st of ch.

Ch 3, working in dc, work 3 dc in each ch 3 mesh, 2 dc in each ch 2 mesh, 1 dc in each ch 1 mesh and 1 dc in each dc, join in 3rd st of ch.

Ch 4, dc in next dc, * ch 1, dc in next dc, repeat from * twice, * ch 1, skip next dc, dc in next dc, repeat from * 40 times, * ch 1, dc in next dc, repeat from * 7 times, * ch 1, skip next dc, dc in next dc, repeat from * 40 times, * ch 1, dc in next dc, repeat from * twice, ch 1, join.

Ch 5 and work 8 — ch 2 meshes, 33 — ch 1 meshes, 16 — ch 2 meshes, 33 — ch 1 meshes, 7 — ch 2 meshes, ch 2, join.

Ch 5 and work 12 — ch 2 meshes, 25 — ch 1 meshes, 24 — ch 2 meshes, 25 — ch 1 meshes, 11 — ch 2 meshes, ch 2, join.

Ch 3, 2 dc in each ch 2 mesh, 1 dc in each ch 1 mesh and 1 dc in each dc, join.

Ch 4, * skip next dc, dc in next dc, ch 1, repeat from * all around, join.

Ch 5 and work 12 — ch 2 meshes, 37 — ch 1 meshes, 24 — ch 2 meshes, 37 — ch 1 meshes, 11 — ch 2 meshes, ch 2, join.

Ch 5 and work 15 — ch 2 meshes, 31 — ch 1 meshes, 30 — ch 2 meshes, 31 — ch 1 meshes, 14 — ch 2 meshes, ch 2, join.

Same as 10th round, cut thread.

Attach Green and work 1 sc in each dc, join, cut thread.

Attach Green in any mesh of 3rd round, ch 3, 2 dc in same mesh, * working downward 3 dc over post of next dc, working upward 3 dc over post of next dc, working across 3 dc over top of mesh, repeat from * all around ending to correspond, join, cut thread.

Attach Green in any mesh of 4th round, ch 3, 2 dc in same mesh, * working downward 3 dc over next post, working across 3 dc over top of mesh of previous round, working upward 3 dc over next post, working across 3 dc over top of mesh, repeat from * all around ending to correspond, join, cut thread.

Attach Green in any free mesh of 4th round, ch 3, 2 dc in same mesh, * working upward 5 dc over next post of 5th round, working downward 5 dc over next post, working across 3 dc in next free mesh of previous round, repeat from * all around ending to correspond, join, cut thread.

* Work Trim in next 3 rounds of meshes in same manner as 3 previous rounds of Trim. Repeat from * once.
