You’ll be making single crochet into them on the next row. When working slip stitches down the side of the Diamond, ensure that you insert your hook under the 2 outer vertical bars of the last stitch of each row to keep the edges stable. When working on the Diamond rows, there is no chain 1 at the beginning. After the chain, switch to the hook you’ll be using. If you tend to make this chain too tightly, it’s okay to go up a hook size while making the chain. When making the initial chain, ensure that you chain loosely. If you would like to change the width of this blanket, you’ll need any multiple of 8, then add 10. I’m currently making a scarf and I started with an initial chain of 42. Or, if you want to try out the stitch pattern without the large commitment, try making a scarf instead. You can use it to make a full size afghan or throw. Use the Stitch Multiple to create the baby afghan in any size or yarn weight by adjusting the initial chain count and/or yarn weight. Each 2-row repeat measures a little under 2″ high. Each full Diamond measures about 1 1/2″ across. It’s difficult to measure gauge for this project. Suggested Crochet Hook Size J-10 (6mm) or hook needed to meet gauge. Trust me when I say that, if you make a mistake in a Diamonds row, you will feel like your life is over. I’ve created something continuous throughout.īe patient, especially when you’re just starting out. It’s similar to Crochet Entrelac patterns but avoids the one thing I disliked the most about those designs: cutting off after each row to start back at the beginning. The changes were not planned and are exactly as the yarn comes out of the cake.
The color changes are made by the use of a self-striping yarn. Each mitered square is worked individually in a continuous row without cutting or changing the yarn. This design is worked in regular crochet with Tunisian crochet elements. If I were to estimate, it would take me about 4 days of fairly intense crocheting.
No breaks, eating, starting over for a mistake, checking Facebook, etc. This is an estimate of actual crochet time. If you prefer a printable download, a PDF is also available for purchase.Īlthough this pattern indicates 23 hours of crochet time, this doesn’t mean it will take you one day. This is a free crochet pattern and the written instructions are below.
