Take Part 1 and 2 and place on your pot. Mark with stitch markers where you need to sew for the

top[spout-handle] and bottom[spout-handle]. Sew up

You should now have something that resembles a hat with an open top. We will now be working the TOP.

Flower:

In top, Slip st to any open stitch, Sc around evenly (approximately 32

stitches more or less is fine) join with a sl st in first sc made,

Ch5, skip 1 sc, DC in next st, [Ch1, Skip next stitch, DC,]* Repeat

around until you get to the ch5, join with a slip stitch to ch3 of ch5

made.

Ch3, 2dc in same first ch1-space, 3dc in next ch1-space and in each

ch1-space around [Change to Rose(red) color in last stitch made]

[Ch6, sc in next stitch]*repeat this around End off, DO NOT JOIN, Sew

closed weave in ends.

Cord:

You can use any color you wish I chose YELLOW.

Option 1:

ch 100+ however long you want your cord , sl st in 2nd ch from hook and in each st across, end off

Option 2:

Do a chainless foundation stitch the length you desire the cord to be. End off [This is what I chose to use]

Enjoy.
