Pattern Ch 8, join with a sl st to the first ch to make a circle R1: ch 2, 8 hdc into the circle (8, ch-2 does not count). Ch 6 turn R2: skip a st, hdc into the next st, ch 8, skip 2 sts, hdc into the next st, ch 4, hdc into the last st (3 sps). Ch 6, turn.

4 *(sc, ch 3, sc) into the next sp, sc into the next 3 sts*. Repeat from * to * up to ch-5 corner. (sc, ch 3, sc) 3 times into ch-5 sp. *Sc into the next 3 sts, (sc, ch 3, sc) into the next sp*. Repeat from * to * to last sp at end of row. In corner sp work (sc, ch 3, sc) 3 times. Turn your work so that you are working down the long, flat edge. Edge Part 2: Sc where the anchor sts intersect, *2 sc into the first sp, sc into the intersection, (sc, ch 3, sc) into the next sp, sc into the next intersection*. Repeat from * to * across to first hdc st from R2 of Shawl .

5 If your Shawl has an even number of rows, your last sp will have a picot, if your Shawl has an odd number of rows, your last sp will have 2 sc. Sc into the edge of the hdc st, (2 sc, ch 3, 2 sc) into the middle circle, sc into the edge of the next hdc st. Work the Edge Part 2 pattern in reverse across the rest of your flat edge: If, into your last sp before the hdc st, you worked 2 sc, then begin with 2 sc, if your last sp before the hdc was a picot, begin with a picot. This reversal of the pattern will ensure that you end with 2 sc in the 2nd last sp, sc in the last intersection, and finish with (sc, ch 3, sc) 2 times into the corner sp, sl st to the first sc (this last sp will have a total of 3 picots in it).
