Ch6, sl st to the first ch to form a ring
Round 1: Ch1 (does not count as a st) 18 dc into the ring. Sl st to the first dc. (18 sts)
Round 2: Ch1, dtr into the next st, (sl st into the next 2 sts, dtr) repeat until 1 st remains, sl st into this st. (18 sts)
Fasten off. Use this tail end to attach to the first st of row 73. You can do this in whatever way you wish, but I did around 5-6 whip stitches in the same spot. The wood anemone flower will sit slightly to the side of the end of the row and this is intentional.

Row 74 (RS): 2dc into the last st of row 73. Dc into each st across until 2 sts before the end of the row. Sl st into the point of the next petal after the one you joined to the previous row. I suggest trying to place the sl st through a couple of loops of the petal, to add more stability. Turn. (178 sts - the sl st does not count as a st)
Row 75 (WS): Dc blo into the last st of row 74. Dc blo into each st across until the last st, 2dc in the last st. Turn. (179 sts)
Row 76 (RS): Chainless tr. Tr in the same st. Tr in the next st. (Skip 1 st, 2tr into the next st) until 3 sts remain. Skip 1 st, tr into the next st, 2tr into the last st. Sl st into the point of the next petal after the one you joined to the previous row. I suggest trying to place the sl st through a couple of loops of the petal, to add more stability. Ch 3, sl st into the next petal point in the same way as described previously. Turn. (185 sts)
Row 77 (WS): Ch1 (does not count as a st), dc flo into each of the sl st, 3ch and sl st. Dc flo into each st across to the last st, 2dc into the last st. (186 sts)
Fasten off.
