Crochet Doily 4

Doily with 3D Border

Fig 1

Hello friends,
Here is one more doily I made with 3D border.
I used Vardhamaan Prime yarn which 4 ply but more thin than usual 4 ply yarn, but due to Lock down, no new puchase, so I used this. Border is made by 4 ply brown colour yarn which is Ok. Crochet hook used is 3.5 mm.
This 3D border idea I got from,

But here the border is in a straight line where as we have to make border of a doily that means in a circular shape, hence I increase the number of dcs in ch 4 loop. Instead of 7 dcs, I made 9 dcs.
Pattern: 
R1: In a magic loop, ch3, dc 15, cl by sl st in third ch, (16 sts)
R2: ch 3+1, (dc 1 in next st, ch 1) rep, cl, (16 ch1-gaps and 16 dcs). Fig 2.
