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 Maureen Liggett on 2008-02-23
I just completed this throw as a birthday gift for my sister, and she just loved it! I chose silver heather as my color, which is just perfect for her decor. It really is fun to work with 3 strands and not difficult. Although it took me longer than 5 1/2 hours,it was well worth the time.
I plan on making another one for myself.
Thanks for the pattern.
