Check gauge to save time.

Pattern NotesWeave in loose ends as work progresses.Each colored row (consisting of a work-off pass and a pick-up pass) requires approximately 14 yards.For the return portion of a row when you work the next lp off the hook following the ch 3 it actually creates a 4th ch so that on the next row when you sk a ch, pick up a lp in each of the next 2 chs, you will be picking up lps in the center 2 of 4 chs.

Afghan

Row 1: With desired scrap color, ch 244, retaining all lps on hook, working through bump on back of ch, draw up a lp in 2nd bump from hook, draw up a lp in each of the rem bumps, first half of row completed.

For return, work as for Row 1.

Row 3: Pick up lps as for Row 2 noting that the vertical bars you will be skipping in fact look more diagonal than vertical, fasten off color. For return, place white on hook with sl knot, draw sl knot through first 3 lps on hook, work as for Row 1 from *.

Row 4: Pick up lps as for Row 3, drop white at end of row, but do not fasten off, instead carry along side edge, twisting to avoid holes. For return, place next scrap color on hook and continue as for Row 3.

Row 6: Rep Row 3 to pick up lps. For return, pick up white and work as for Row 1.

Row 7: Rep Row 4.

Row 87: Rep Row 2.

After completing the return portion of Row 87, bind off in the following manner, ch 1, sk first cl, *[pick up lp under next vertical bar and draw through lp already on hook] 9 times, [pick up lp in next ch and draw through lp already on hook] 4 times, [pick up lp under next vertical bar and draw through lp already on hook] 9 times, sk cl, rep from * across, ending with pick up lp in top of final cl and draw through lp on hook, fasten off.

Tip Of Crochet.

2007-12-08T05:08:00.000-08:00

The crochet tips I would like to pass along today are more generalin nature and may be helpful to you as you learn more about crochetand begin doing more projects.
* Using a tapestry needle or any large needle with a large eye is amuch better way to weave in the loose ends on a finished project.
* You can use a safety pin to hold a stitch in place before youstore a project away that is not yet completed.
* A tooth brush case (like the kind you get for traveling) makes anice crochet hook holder for traveling as well.
* To keep loose ends from coming out, reverse the direction of thestitch after you weave in your first few stitches.
* You can use empty prescription bottles to help organize yoursmall supplies like beads and needles.
* When following a pattern, a Post-It note works great to stick onthe line you were working from when you put the pattern away.
* Keep an unfinished crochet project in a bag and ready-to-go. Thatway you can be prepared for any of those last-minute trips.
* Start your work from the strand of yarn from the center of theskein to help keep the yarn from rolling around while you work.
* Roll your leftover yarn into balls for easy storage and to keepthem from getting tangled.
* A small fishing tackle box makes a great 'crochet kit' withcompartments for all your crochet supplies.

This is just a small sampling of simple crochet tips. You can findmany more on the Internet if you go to a search engine like Googleor Yahoo! and search for "crochet tips." Best Regards,
