Step 2 Eave A2​ 39' 34'' ​(Part1) ​ ​

The eave is crocheted back and forth from the side edge of the main piece, joining yarn as you go. There's a color change midway through. Once completed, work a row of slip stitches into the stitch positions on row 11. Please refer to the video demonstration for specifics.

Step 3 EdgingA3​ 67' 37'' (Part1)

Divide into the first edging, the second edging, the third edging, and the lace edging, and work in sequence. Please refer to the video demonstration for details.

Step 4 Side Edging A4​ 00' 08'' (Part2)

There are 2 side pieces, left and right are identical. Both involve joining the yarn to the braid formed by the slip stitch from the second edging round. First, work back and forth, then complete the border. Finally, sew it to the main part. Please refer to the video demonstration for details.

Note:
Cut a 20-centimeter wire, take out 2 wheel beads and insert them, then pass through the center of the flower.
After the flower branches on the palace marker and the flower branches on the flower windows are assembled, the remaining flowers, buds, and leaves are used for assembling bookmarks.
