Crochet Triangle Afghan
Lion Brand® Homespun®
GAUGE: Triangle = 8 in. [20.5 cm] along each side with larger hook. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION: | Dc3tog (dc 3 sts together) Yarn over, insert hook into st and draw up a loop, yarn over and draw through 2 loops. (Yarn over, insert hook into next st and draw up a loop. Yarn over, draw through 2 loops) twice, yarn over and draw through all loops on hook. |

I made this blanket a couple of years ago for my goddaughter. I used lime green and black and it came out fabulous! I am currently making triangles with scrap Homespun yarn to make this same blanket.
It is tedious putting all the rows together, but worth it with the finished product.
