  • Ch1 at the start of each row does not count as a stitch throughout the pattern.
  • Repeat what is in between the stars from * to * until the end of the round.
  • If you have a ** in your row you need to follow the pattern from * to * across the entire row and then when you get near the end of the row you will finish your last repeat at ** because you can no longer complete the entire repeat then follow what it says to do to complete the row.
  • Read each row carefully before starting the row.

Fasten off and weave in ends.

Blocking:

Your crochet blanket can look uneven and may not lay completely flat depending on hook and yarn used which is perfectly normal with different stitch designs.

The best way to sort this out is to block your work!

  • Water – Submerge your blanket in cool water for approx 15-20 mins then lay flat, you can reshape whilst wet, pin on to blocking mats and let it dry completely.

You can use this method with: Acrylic, Wool and Cotton

  • Spray – Spray both sides of your blanket with water so it’s nice and damp, you can reshape whilst damp, pin on to blocking boards and let it dry completely.

The best method for this is with: Acrylic, Wool and Cotton

  • Steam – Pin your blanket on to blocking mats and use a hand steamer to loosen the fibers so it will reshape.

Try this method with: Acrylic – I would suggest doing a swatch with your chosen yarn if you are using wool.
