Wave on FLO-
If one of the below rds doesn’t quite work evenly just fudge it at the end. It’s in the back and is ok. If that’s stressful for you, you can put a couple of the sts in the same sts, to help it end even. Either is great! (As another option you can also put all the sts after * in 1 st to create a bigger ripple effect)
Bottom FLO rd- in the FLO sl st, *sc, ch, dc, ch, sc, sl st, repeat from *
Second FLO rd- sl st, *sc, hdc, ch, dc, ch, hdc, sc, sl st, repeat from *
