Snowflake #8
Ch  4.  Connect to form circle.
Round 1: (Ch 10, Sc into center of circle) 5 times. For last loop, Ch 4 and work a Double Treble into base of beg ch.
Round 2: Ch 3 (Serves as 1st Dc). 2 Dc into same Ch 10 loop. *Work 1 Picot St. 3 Dc into next Ch 10 Loop. Work Triple Picot St. 3 Dc into same Ch 10 Loop. Repeat from * around snowflake to beg Ch 10 loop. Work 3 Dc into beg Ch 10 Loop. Work Triple Picot St. Sl St into top of beg ch. End off and weave threads.

Snowflake Fridgie #9
I designed this snowflake using the thread, instead of yarn.  Yes, the reverse is true, you can do this pattern in yarn for a larger snowflake.
Ch 4. Connect to form a circle.
Round 1: (Ch 3. Dc into circle. Work Triple Picot.  Sl St into top of Dc to anchor Triple Picot. Ch 3, Sc into Circle.) 6 Times.  End off and weave threads.

A customer wanted some extra large snowflakes to decorate a huge tree in a business.  Using Worsted Weight Glitter yarn wtih a G or H Sized hook, these average 7 inches from tip to tip.
I did the samples in 2 strands of #10 cotton thread and an 0 sized hook.  These range in size from 3 to 4 1/2 inches from tip to tip.

Use these instructions to start the remaining snowflakes:
Ch 6 & connect to form circle.
Row 1: Ch 4 (Serves as 1st Dc and Ch 1). (Dc, Ch 1) 11 times into center of ring.  Connect to beg ch.

Snowflake #10
Rows 2 & 3: (Ch 6, Sc in next Ch1 Sp) 11 times.  Ch 3, Dc into base of beg ch (Round 3: Dc into top of Dc of Round 2.)
Row 4: Ch 1, Sc in same lp. *(Dc, Ch 1) 3 times in next lp. Work Single Picot.  (Dc, Ch1) 3 times in same lp. Sc in next loop.  Repeat from * around circle.  Connect to beg Sc and end off.  Weave threads.

Snowflake  #11- Variation of #10
Use the same instructions for Snowflake #10 up to Row 4, then use the following to finish:
Row 4: Ch 1, Sc in same lp. *(Dc, Ch 1) 3 times in next lp. Work Triple Picot.  (Dc, Ch1) 3 times in same lp. Sc in next loop & work Grounded Picot St.  Repeat from * around circle ending with Grounded Picot St in top of beg Sc.  End off and weave threads.

Snowflake  #12
Row 2: (Ch 5, Sc in next Ch1 Sp) 11 times.  Ch 3, Dc into base of beg ch.
Row 3: Ch 1, Sc in same lp. *3 Dc in next lp. Work Picot St.  3 Dc in same lp. Sc in next loop.  Repeat from * around circle, connect to beg Sc. End off and weave threads.

Snowflake  #13- Variation of #12
Use the same instructions for Snowflake #12 up to Row 3, then use the following to finish:
Row 3: Ch 1, Sc in same lp. *3 Dc in next lp. Work Triple Picot. 3 Dc in same lp. Sc in next loop, work Grounded Picot.  Repeat from * around circle ending with Grounded Picot St in beginning Sc. End off and weave threads.

Snowflake #14
Row 2: (Ch 5, Sc in next Ch1 Sp.) 11 times around circle.  Ch 2, Dc into base of beg ch.
Row 3: Ch 1, Sc in same sp. *(Dc, Ch 1) 3 times in next lp, Dc in same lp.  Sc in next lp.  Repeat from * around circle, connect to beg Sc.
Row 4: Ch 1, Sc in same st. *Ch 1, Sc into next Ch1 Sp. Ch 3.  Dc in next Ch1 Sp, Work Triple Picot & sl st into top of Dc. Ch 3, Sc in next Ch1 Sp.  Sc in top of Sc of previous row, & work Grounded Picot St.  Repeat from * around circle.  Connect to beg Sc, end off and weave threads.

Snowflake #15
Row 2: Ch2, Dc in same sp. *Ch 2, Work 2DcDec in next Ch1 Sp.  Repeat from * around circle, connect to top of beg ch.
Row 3: Ch 2, Dc in same sp. *Ch 1, work Picot. Ch 1, work  2DcDec in next Ch2 Sp.  Ch 2, work Triple Picot, Ch 2, 2DcDec in next Ch2 Sp.  Repeat from * around circle, connect to top of beg ch.  End off and weave threads.
