PATTERN NOTES
Skill Level: Intermediate
Right Side/Wrong Side: There is no right sided or wrong side to your fabric until the joining of your squares. The border worked around each of your squares will be considered the “right side”. Although the “wrong side” of your blanket is still attractive enough to be displayed as the “right side,” if preferred!
Turning Chain: The turning chain does not count as a stitch.
Construction: This blanket is worked in 12 squares which are joined together with your crochet hook using a flat slip stitch seam. A border is worked last to complete the blanket.
Color Charts: There are two different squares for this blanket and two different color charts (Charts A and B, found on pages 7 and 8). The semi-circle shape used throughout this blanket is the same shape in both charts. The difference between the two charts is the orientation of each semi-circle.
Changing Colors: When changing colors, work up to and including the last stitch in the old color, but do not work the final yarn-over to close the stitch. Work this yarn-over with the new color. Then drop the old color to the back of the work and continue crocheting with the new color.
Intarsia Colorwork: This blanket is worked using the colorwork technique called intarsia.
Supplementary Video Tutorial: Please watch the supplementary video tutorial on my YouTube channel to see how each square is worked! If you are new to crochet intarsia, you will find it very helpful.
