Calm Green Throw
Lion Brand® Homespun®
GAUGE: One Square = 9 x 9 in. (23 x 23 cm). 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: Beg CL (Beginning Cluster) Ch 4, (yarn over) twice, insert hook in indicated st and draw up a loop, (yarn over and draw through 2 loops) twice. *(Yarn over) twice, insert hook in same st and draw up a loop, (yarn over and draw through 2 loops) twice; rep from * once more, yarn over and draw through all loops on hook.
CL (Cluster) (Yarn over) twice, insert hook in indicated st and draw up a loop, (yarn over and draw through 2 loops) twice. *(Yarn over) twice, insert hook in same st and draw up a loop, (yarn over and draw through 2 loops) twice; rep from * 2 more times, yarn over and draw through all loops on hook.

| Calm Green Throw Reviewed by Kelsey on 2013-03-13 |

| Very easy to make and turned out really well. It's a bit smaller than I thought it would be, but it's not like I was expecting a blanket or anything. I used completely different colors, but it's still very pretty.
