Crochet Fringed Throw

Lion Brand® Homespun®

GAUGE:

10 sts = 4" [10 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:

LOOP STITCH
Step 1 Using the index finger on the left hand to control the lp size (which should be approximately 1½"), hold yarn over finger 1½" behind work; insert the hook in st, hook both strands of lp just made, draw these strands through st.

Step 2 Wrap the supply yarn over the hook (yo).

Step 3 Draw through all lps on hook-1 lp st made.

NOTES:

Loop Stitch (lp st) is a variation of single crochet (sc) and is worked on the wrong-side rows because the lps form at the back of the fabric.

Editor’s Note: When creating fringe using Homespun please note that because of the texture of the yarn the fringe will fray when cut. If you prefer a non-frayed look you can knot the ends, knit or crochet a fringe, or use hairspray or fray check.


THROW
Ch 98.

Row 1 (Right side) Dc in 4th ch from hook (starting ch 3 counts as 1 dc), dc in next ch and in each to end (96 dc).

Row 2 Ch 1; turn; sc in first 2 sts, 1 lp st in each of next 4 sts, * 1 sc in each of next 4 sts, 1 lp st in each of next 4 sts, repeat from * across, end sc in last 2 sts including top of turning ch.

Row 3 Ch 3 (counts as 1 dc), turn, skip first sc (below ch-3), dc in next st and in each st, and lp st to end.

Repeat Rows 2 and 3 for pattern until throw measures approximately 50". Fasten off.

BORDER
Join yarn with sl st in any corner, *sc evenly across to next corner, 3 sc in corner; repeat from * around, sl st in first sc. Fasten off.

LOOP FRINGE EDGING (make 2)
Ch 97.

Row 1 Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each across (96 sc). * Brace a 5" x 5" strip of cardboard (strip) behind the work with left hand, insert hook in next st, transfer strip to right hand and take yarn around strip front to back, draw up a lp, yo, draw yarn through 2 lps; repeat from * to end of row, sliding lps off and moving strip forward as it becomes filled. Sew a loop fringe edging to top and bottom of throw.

Crochet Fringed Throw Reviewed by Nancy Meskill on 2008-08-29 *****
I have made this pattern many times and given them as wedding gifts. I also made a matching pillow with the same pattern. It was easy and quick once you got the hang of it.
