This blanket involves working with two yarns at the same time and being able to rotate working with them in within the same row. This is done by working with one string at a time while the other string is worked around and brought along.

Needle Size: 6.00 mm or J hook

 

Stitches Used

Ch = Chain

sc = Single Crochet

dc = double crochet

CL = Cluster

FPtr = Front Post Treble Crochet
