This is an excerpt of Pagoda Pattern in BW3, p.172. Step1--make three leaves as follows
CO 17st
Row 1: purl
Row 2: ssk, k2, (yo, ssk) twice, k1, (k2tog, yo) twice, k2, k2tog
Rows 3, 5, 7: p2tog, p across, end p2tog-b
Row 4: ssk, k1, (yo, ssk, yo), sl1-k2tog-psso, (k2tog, yo, k2tog), k1, k2tog
Row6: ssk, k2, yo, ssk, k1, k2tog
after Row 7, 5st rm on each leaf.
Step2--join leaves on row 8 as follows
On leaf A, ssk, k1, k2tog. Join leaf B by continuing to use same RH needle and yarn, ssk, k1, k2tog, and then leaf C=9st total.
Row 9, 11: purl.
Row 10, 12: ssk, k1 across
Work I-cord of desired length on remaining 3 st, draw yarn through to end.
Minor variation: join in circular fashion in row 8, then work from the wrong side to make the stem come out from behind like a real plant.
