Start crocheting the Round 5: ch1, 1sc into (ch2 + 1dc) space of the previous round, 6trc into next ch5 space, ch3,

Drop the loop of the hook, insert hook from front to back into ch5 space of the first motif’s final round. Pick up the loop and pull it through the ch5 space.

ch2, 6trc into that same ch5 space.

Finish the motif you are working on to the end of the round and fasten off.

Shared Corner Join 

This join takes place where motifs 1 and 2 are already joined. Follow the previous steps in the same way until you get to the corner join area.
