This pattern features a car and a truck driving on a road with grass on either side of the road. It was designed to be worked as a graphghan in single crochet, but I have also included instructions to make this in Tunisian crochet (tss) and knit. (To knit, follow the color sequence in the sc pattern file with the changes noted in the knit instructions file.)

The pattern file includes an intro page that includes suggested yarns and estimated amounts needed, a color graph chart on one page, a color graph enlarged on several pages, row by row written instructions in text form, and row by row instructions in color block form. Although suggested yarn is listed, feel free to substitute the brand/colors of your choice.

The graph is 160x160 stitches. The finished size will depend on your individual tension. At a gauge of 3.5 sc per inch the finished size will be approximately 43x43” before any optional border.

The pattern is written for worsted weight/category 4 yarn, but other weight yarns will work well with an appropriate size hook for the yarn. Yarn amounts are rounded up to include some extra to allow for yarn ends but do not include amounts for any optional border.
