Striped Crochet Throw
Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®
GAUGE:
3 V-sts = 4 in. (10 cm), worked with 2 strands held tog. 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:
1. Throw is worked with 2 strands held tog.
2. To change color, work last st of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops to complete st. Fasten off old color.

Striped Crochet Throw Reviewed by Bev Vandel on 2012-03-29
I'm a beginner at crocheting. I made this afghan for my daughter-in-law and she loves it. Now I am making a second one for my son in other colours. It was very easy and went quickly.
