Sunflower Table Set

This pattern requires a No. 8 crocheting hook - I think this might be 1.5mm? It also calls for "Strutt's Macrame Twine", but I think you could possibly get away with using corresponding yarn for the hook.

I think this may be in American crochet terms.

My apologies for the shoddy scan. My scanner is a normal A4 scanner, and doesn't do too well with wide format pages. The last column is as follows:
[...]second circle on top of the first in the same way as for the centre mat, then join on yellow and work foundation round as given for centre mat. Work in rounds of loops as follows:
1st round. -- *4 ch., 1 d.c. in 2nd ch. from hook, 2 ch., miss 1st s.c. on previous round, 1 s.c. into next s.c.; rep. from * all round, sl. st. into base of first loop.
2nd round. -- Sl.st. along edge of 1st loop to single ch. loop at top, * 3ch., 1 d.c. into 2nd ch. from hook, 1 ch., 1 s.c. into single ch. loop at top of next loop ; rep. from * all round, working last s.c. into base of 1st loop. Fasten off.
Lay out the mats on an ironing board or thick cloth and pin out the points in the last round. Press mats well with a hot iron and damp cloth.
