GAUGE:
About 3 V-sts + 4 rows = 6 in. (15 cm) in pattern with 1 strand each of A, B and C held together. 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.
NOTES:
Throw is worked with 1 strand each of A, B and C held together.

5 1/2 Hour Throw Reviewed by Susan Grey on 2013-03-05
I made one of these in all-white for a baby shower. Very soft and pretty and pattern extremely user-friendly. I chose not to add the fringe, trimmed instead with white organza ribbon threaded through the loops at either end.
