Two for two!
I did it again. I won the simplysnowflakes Homepage Contest (aka Natural Snowflake Contest). Go me!! I'll have to sit the next one out to give the others a chance, LOL!
Here's the flake we had to recreate in cotton:
And here's my version:
Simple Snowflake
(American notation)
Ch4, slst in 1st ch to form ring.
Rnd 1) Ch6, (dc in ring, ch3) x 5, join w slst in 3rd ch at beg of rnd.
Rnd 2) Ch1, sc in same st, ch4, (sc in nxt dc, ch4) around, join w slst in beg sc.
Rnd 3) Ch11, (dc in nxt sc, ch8) around, join w slst in 3rd ch at beg of rnd.
Rnd 4) Ch1, sc in same st, **ch9, sc in nxt dc (= base sc), †(*ch5, hdc in 2nd ch from hk, hdc, sc, slst*, ch7, hdc in 2nd ch from hk, hdc x2, sc x2, slst, repeat btw *'s, slst in base sc)†, repeat from ** x4, ch9, slst in 1st sc of rnd, repeat btw †'s. Finish off.

As ever, please let me know if you find any mistakes or it just plain doesn't make sense, thanx.

Thank you very much, Aim. Yes, I think it's a great idea. I would never have thought to myself "I think I'll design a snowflake today", but when I saw the picture for the first competition I started thinking about what combinations of stitches I'd use to make a flake that looked like it. Then I wondered if it would work. The next thing I knew I was sitting there with a ball of cotton and my trusty #10 hook, LOL!
