It is necessary to tie 6 elements consisting of 6 columns with a triple top. The number 6 is the basis of the scheme by which "African flowers" are formed. • Hook the motif around the edge with a hook , using a string of contrasting color. Columns without a crochet alternate as shown in the photo. The motive is more like a flower.

Knitting Needles

• Now we turn to knitting the body of the needle bed. To do this, we tie one row into columns with a crochet. And then in each new row, several loops should be tied together, so that the form of knitting resembles a cylinder.
• After you have formed a few centimeters of the side walls of the bed, continue to knit the bottom. To do this, divide the loops into 8 parts and reduce in each row their number, tying together 2 loops in the group.
• Before completing work on the bed, fill the inner cavity with cotton wool, pieces of foam rubber, or other soft material. This will give her a beautiful shape, making the "African flowers" crochet even more expressive.
• Last stage of work: turn off all loops and fix the end of the thread.
