Throw measures approximately 56"/142cm wide x 61"/155cm
GAUGE One block measures about 4 3/4 x 4 3/4"/12 x 12cm. Gauge is not critical for this project.
INSTRUCTIONS NOTES 1. Throw is made from 132 blocks, arranged into 12 rows of 11 blocks each. 2. Blocks are worked with RS facing throughout. Do not turn at the ends of rounds. BLOCK (make 132) With A, ch 6; sl st in first ch to form a ring. Round 1 (RS): Ch 3 (counts as first dc here and throughout), work 15 more dc in ring; join with sl st in top of beginning ch—16 dc. Fasten off. Round 2: With RS facing, join B with sl st in any dc, ch 3, dc in same dc, 2 dc in each remaining dc around; join with sl st in top of beginning ch—32 dc. Fasten off. Round 3: With RS facing, join C in any sp between two 2-dc groups, ch 3, 2 dc in same sp, 3 dc in each sp between 2-dc groups around;; join with sl st in top of beginning ch—48 dc. Fasten off. Round 4: With RS facing, join D with sc in any sp between two 3-dc groups, ch 3, *sc in next sp between 3-dc groups, ch 3; repeat from * around; join with sl st in first sc—16 sc and 16 ch-3 sps. Do not fasten off. Round 5: With D, sl st in next ch-3 sp, ch 2 (counts as hdc), 2 hdc in same ch-3 sp, *3 dc in next ch-3 sp, (4 tr, ch 1, 4 tr) in next ch-3 sp, 3 dc in next ch-3 sp, 3 hdc in next ch-3 sp; repeat from * 2 more times, 3 dc in next ch-3 sp, (4 tr, ch 1, 4 tr) in next ch-3 sp, 3 dc in next ch-3 sp; join with sl st in top of beginning ch. Fasten off. FINISHING With RS facing, arrange blocks into 12 rows of 11 blocks each. With D, whipstitch blocks together. Border Round 1: With RS facing, join D with sl st in any corner ch-1 sp, ch 3, 2 dc in same ch-1 sp, {*dc in next tr, sk next tr, V-st in next tr, sk next tr, [dc in next 3 sts, sk next st, V-st in next st, sk next st] twice, dc in next tr, work dc3tog working first leg in next ch-1 sp, 2nd leg in seam between blocks, and 3rd leg in following ch-1 sp; repeat from * to next corner block, dc in next tr, sk next tr, V-st in next tr, sk next tr, [dc in next 3 sts, sk next st, V-st in next st, sk next st] twice, dc in next tr**, 3 dc in corner ch-1 sp}; repeat between { and } 3 more times, ending last repeat at **; join with sl st in top of beginning ch. Round 2: Ch 4, 5 tr in next dc, tr in next dc, {*FPdc around next dc, V-st in ch-sp of next V-st, [FPdc around next dc, BPdc around next dc, FPdc around next dc, V-st in ch-sp of next V-st] twice, FPdc around next dc, BPtr around next dc3tog; repeat from * to next corner block, FPdc around next dc, V-st in ch-sp of next V-st, [FPdc around next dc, BPdc around next dc, FPdc around next dc, V-st in ch-sp of next V-st] twice, FPdc around next dc**, tr in next dc, 5 tr in next dc, tr in next dc}; repeat between { and } 3 more times, ending last repeat at **; join with sl st in top of beginning ch. Round 3: Ch 3, {FPdc around next tr, dc in next tr, 3 dc in next tr, dc in next tr, FPdc around next tr, dc in next tr, FPdc around next FPdc, 3 dc in ch-sp of next V-st, *FPdc around next st, BPdc around next st, FPdc around next st, 3 dc in ch-sp of next V-st; repeat from * across to last FPdc before next corner, FPdc around next FPdc **, dc in next tr}; repeat between { and } 3 more times, ending last repeat at **; join with sl st in top of beginning ch. Fasten off. Using yarn needle weave in all ends.
