On the wrong side of Spiral, starting at the join with Puff Flower and working in back bump, (standing sc, ch2, sk1, sc in next st), continue around Spiral to the join with flower, turn. Sl st into ch sp of the flower, ch1, *popcorn into ch2 sp, ch2 * repeat *- *around Spiral to other side ending with ch1, sl st into next available sc on flower. 11. Work standing dc into 1st ch2 sp between popcorn, 3dc in same sp, 4dc into each ch2 around to the other side, join with sl st to flower. 12. Work back post sc around. 13. Work double bullion stitches (sl st into the stitch, ch 3 and work 5 wraps around the ch3) around Spiral, working the ch 3 into next dc of step 11 and behind the sc from step 12, and the sl st/sc (to pull through all loops) into the next dc.
