5½ hour Throw
Lion Brand® Jiffy®
GAUGE: In pattern, 3 V-s sts = 6", 4 rows = 6". 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 three strands of yarn held together throughout.

| 5½ hour Throw Reviewed by Lynn Burr on 2011-10-24 |

| I have made three of these beautiful throws for gifts and I'm finally starting on one for myself. I made them exactly as instructed and they worked up perfectly. Although they always take more than 5 1/2 hours, they don't take very long. They look very rich and the thick tassels really add to the plush look and feel. I highly recommend this project and I'm sure I will be making more.
