Rnd 1: (right side) Ch 1, 8 sc in ring, join with sl st to first sc. Note: Loop a short piece of thread around any stitch to mark last round and right side.
Rnd 2: Ch 2, Work beginning cluster. Ch 2, (work 3-dc Cluster in next sc, ch 2) around; join with sl st to top of beginning 3-dc Cluster, finish off: 8 Clusters.
Rnd 3: With right side facing, join CC with a sl st in any ch-2 sp, ch 2,work (3-dc Cluster, ch 4, 4-dc Cluster) in same sp, ch 2, work 3-dc Cluster in next ch-2 sp,ch 2, * work (4-dc Cluster, ch 4, 4-dc Cluster) in next ch-2 sp, ch 2,work 3-dcCluster in next ch-2 sp, ch 2; repeat fro * around; join with sl st in top of first 3-dc Cluster: 12 sps.

Weave in thread ends on back. If desired, stiffen square and let dry. Make sure to not stiffen too stiff so you can sew on beads or you can glue on beads instead.
