Row 01: Cast on 15 Chain stitches. 3 of the chain stitches are used as spiral chain stitches. Work a double crochet in the fourth chain stitch from the hook and 1 double crochet in each additional chain stitch until the end of the row.

Row 02: crochet 3 chain stitches and 5 double crochets. Make one chain in the air and skip the next stitch. Then crochet another six double crochet stitches.

Row 03: crochet 3 chain stitches and 2 double crochets. Chain three in the air, skip the next three stitches and crochet a single crochet in the gap in the chain stitch from the previous row. Chain 3 in the air and leave out the next 3 stitches. Now work 3 double crochets.

Row 04: Crochet 3 chain stitches and 1 double crochet. Chain 4 in the Air and leave out the next stitch and the chain stitch. Work one single crochet on the single crochet from the previous row. Crochet 4 chain stitches, leaving out the chain stitches and one stitch. Now you crochet 2 double crochets.

Row 05: Cast on 3 chain stitches and crochet 1 double crochet and 4 double crochets in the gap created by the chain stitch from the previous row. Now work a double double crochet on the single crochet from the previous row, 4 double crochets in the gap created by the chain stitches from the previous row and 2 double crochets.

Row 06: crochet 1 double crochet in each stitch.

Repeat rows 2 through 6 until you get the length you want.
