Repeat this along the row until the second-to-last stitch, adding another 3 DC cluster.
Chain 2, and in the last stitch, add 3 DC, chain two.
After the last cluster, you should have 6 clusters of 3 DC. In the next stitch, add 3 more DC.

Chain 3 at the start of every new row and continue the specified pattern.

For corners:

3 DC, chain 2, 3 DC in the same space.
After completing Row 6, directly start the border without cutting off the yarn:

Border:

Chain 1, then proceed to add one half-double crochet (HDC) around the entire rectangle.
Complete the border with a slip stitch to the first chain one space, then cut off and weave in the ends.

Back Panel:

Repeat the same steps as for the Front Panel, but work in a single color throughout.

Chain 2 and turn your work.

After completing row 4, add a single crochet (SC) border around the entire piece.
After the last SC, slip stitch to the first chain 1.

Repeat for 18 rows to achieve a 5 inch strap.
