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.

THROW: Starting at bottom edge of the throw, with three strands of yarn held together, loosely ch 67. Row 1: Dc in 5th ch from hook, ch 1, dc in same st, * skip 2 ch, (dc, ch 1, dc) in next ch; repeat from * to last 2 ch, sk 1 ch, dc in last ch. Ch 3, turn. Row 2: *(Dc, ch 1, dc) in next ch-1 sp-one V-stitch made; repeat from * across, ending with dc in top of turning-ch. Ch 3, turn. Repeat Row 2 until 40 rows have been completed. Fasten off.
EDGING: With the right side facing you, work 1 row of sc along each side edge of the throw.
FRINGE: Wind a single strand of yarn around an 11" piece of cardboard. Cut at one end, making 22"-long strands. Attach 9 strands per fringe. Fold strands of yarn in half to form a loop; insert the crochet hook through back of work in first stitch along bottom edge of throw; pull loop through. Bring the ends through loop and tighten. Continue to attach fringe in every other space along the bottom edge. Repeat for the top edge. Trim fringe evenly. |

| I made one of these for my daughter to take to college. I used two strands instead of three, but it still is thick and cuddly. One piece of advice: if you use Homespun Lion Brand yarn, find a worsted weight similarly-colored yarn for the fringe. Homespun does not fringe well.
