One of my own original designs.

for a 6" square

“G” hook

special stitchs:
Cluster: Keeping last loop of each dc on the hook, 2 dc in specified st, YO and draw through all 3 loops on hook
Beg Cluster: ch 2, dc in same space

ch 5, join wiht sl st to form a ring

rnd 1: ch 3, 2 dc in ring, { ch 3, 3 dc in ring } three times, ch 3, sl st in top of beg ch-3

rnd 2: sl st in next dc, Beg Cluster, ch 2, Cluster in same st, * skip next dc, {2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc} in next ch-2 space, skip next dc, Cluster, ch 2, Cluster in next dc, repeat from * twice more, skip next dc, {2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc} in next ch-2 space, join with sl st to top of Beg Cluster

rnd 3: sl st in next ch-2 sp, ch 1, sc in same sp, * ch 3, skip next Cluster, dc in next two dc, {2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc} in next ch-3 space, dc in next two dc, ch 3, sc in next ch-2 sp, rep from * twice more, ch 3, skip next Cluster, dc in next two dc, {2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc} in next ch-3 space, dc in next two dc, ch 3, sl st to first sc

rnd 4: sl st in next ch-3 sp, Beg Cluster, ch 2, Cluster in same sp, * sk next 2 dc, dc in next 2 dc, {2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc} in next ch-3 sp, dc in next 2 dc, {Cluster, ch 2, Cluster in next ch-3 sp} twice, rep from * twice more, sk next 2 dc, dc in next 2 dc, {2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc} in next ch-3 sp, dc in next 2 dc, Cluster, ch 2, Cluster in next ch-3 sp, sl st to top of Beg Cluster

rnd 5: ch 3, 2 dc in next ch-2 sp, dc in top of Cluster, dc in next 4 dc, * 5 dc in next ch-3 sp, dc in next 4 dc, { dc in top of Cluster, 2 dc in next ch-2 sp, dc in top of Cluster} twice, dc in next 4 dc, rep from * twice more, 5 dc in next ch-3 sp, dc in next 4 dc, dc in top of Cluster, 2 dc in next ch-2 sp, dc in top of Cluster, sl st to top of beg ch-3

finish off and weave in ends
