Patch Sampler Throw
Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®
GAUGE:
1 Square = about 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.

Patch Sampler Throw Reviewed by Donna Henderson on 2012-11-10
This took quite a while to make, Turned out very nice, I changed the colors - used Vanna's Brick, Berry, Rust, Pea green and dusty blue. Love the size and it's so warm! Added two rows of single crochet for border for a more finished look.
