Colorful Arches Throw Blanket
The COLORFUL ARCHES Crochet Blanket produces a beautiful blanket! Instructions are included to make it ANY SIZE! It is an easy pattern that produces impressive results. The pattern is suitable for a girl or boy. Great crochet throw blanket!
I want you to succeed in making this blanket and Love It. The PDF pattern includes a detailed 19-page tutorial with 60+ step-by-step photos to walk you through and show you exactly where to place your hook and stitch. The photos are very helpful for a visual learner to make sure the stitch pattern looks right. Tips are given throughout. It reads like a friend explaining how to make the blanket. Stitches used are Chain, Single Crochet, and Double Crochet. Instructions are also given for the border. Pattern repeat is included so that it can be made virtually any size. The pattern is written in US terms. Included in the pattern there is a conversion for UK/AUS crochet terms, yarn weights, and hook sizes. Photo tutorial can be viewed on your monitor or printed off. I try to make my patterns easy to understand and avoid some of the confusion of reading patterns. I try to be specific and detailed to clarify any areas that can be tricky and give tips along the way.
The multi-color arches blanket measures 24” wide x 32” long (61cm x 78 cm). It was made with Caron Simply Soft Yarn, Medium (4) Weight Yarn. I used an “H8/5mm” hook (recommended hook on the label). I used a total of 14 oz. of yarn was used. I used the colors I had in my stash already.
The Blue blanket measures 30” wide x 36” long (76 cm x 91 cm). It was made with Bernat Softee Baby Stripes yarn. Light (3) weight yarn. I used a “G6/4mm” hook (recommended hook on the label). Each skein of yarn was 4.2 oz/120g. Three skeins were used for a total of 12.6oz/360g. It was started with a chain of 126. This was a nice way to have a colorful blanket with minimal ends to weave in.
If you are like me you choose a blanket by the stitch/pattern first and not the size. Did you ever see a stitch you really Love but it for a baby blanket pattern and you want to make a large afghan? Not a problem here. Every one of my patterns includes the pattern repeat so that you can make it ANY size.
