This advanced level pattern is intended for those who have done at least one project that has crossover cables made both in front of & behind posts. Tutorials can be found on YouTube.

This 13-page pattern has written-out instructions for every row, in addition to a full-page Stitch Chart for the visually inclined with a Symbols Guide to thoroughly explain it.

As a crocheter for 20+ years now & a former professional proofreader, you can crochet this with the confidence that it has been gone over with a fine-tooth comb.

Answers to stitch-related questions can be found on Youtube. Feel free to contact me with any pattern-related questions, & I’ll typically get back to you within 24 hours.

Enjoy! Let me know what you think.
Namaste! Om Shanti!
