DEC = decrease (insert hook in first stitch, draw up a loop, insert hook in second stitch, draw up a loop, yarn over and draw yarn through all 3 loops on hook)
DC = double crochet
SK = skip
** = repeat

Starting with white
Ch 2 or magic ring

2) INC x 6 (12 sc)
3) SC in each SC around (12 sc)
4) SC in each SC around (12 sc) ++ stuff top
5) SC DEC around (6 sc)
