Classic Double Crochet Solid Triangle in the round
Make a MC.
Round 1. Ch 5 (counts as a dc and a ch-3 sp here and throughout) (photo 1), (dc 3 in MC, ch 3) twice, dc 2 in MC, sl st in third-made ch to join. (9 dc sts, 3 3-ch sps, photo 2)
Round 2. Sl st in first ch-3 sp, ch 5 (photo 3). [Dc 2] in same ch-3 sp, *dc 3 (photo 4). [Dc 2, ch 3, dc 2] in next ch-3 sp (photo 5). Repeat from * twice. Dc 3, dc 1 in initial ch-3 sp (indicated by the arrow in photo 6). Sl st in third-made ch to join. (21 dc sts, 3 ch-3 sps, photo 7)
Grow your triangle as follows:
- Sl st in first ch-3 sp, and ch 5 (counts as dc and a ch-3 sp);
- [Dc 2] in the same ch-3 sp;
- Dc 1 in each dc from the previous round;
- [Dc 2, ch 3, dc 2] in each ch-3 sp;
- Dc 1 in the initial ch-3 sp.
- Sl st in the third-made ch to join.
