Ombre Afghan
Discontinued.
This digital pattern is no longer available online.
This afghan is quite easy to make, the only stitch needed is dc, but it may take a while to finish (depending on the size you decide to make).
Materials:
- 4 skeins dark brown worsted weight yarn (A)
- 5 skeins light brown worsted weight yarn (B)
- 5 skeins orange worsted weight yarn (C)
- 5 skeins dark yellow worsted weight yarn (D)
- 5 skeins bright yellow worsted weight yarn (E)
- 4 skeins light yellow worsted weight yarn (F)
- Each skein is 100g (approx. 233m or 254 yards)
- 8mm hook
- blunt needle for weaving in loose ends
Notes:
- Gauge: 9 stitches and 5 rows = 4’’/10cm square in dc.
- With the above gauge, the finished size of the afghan will be 75”/190cm wide by 79”/200cm long.
- To make a smaller or larger blanket, use different yarns or change the number of stitches/rows worked in each color change. Just remember to crochet a swatch first so you can calculate your finished size accordinly.
- The ombre effect is achieved by dropping/joining 1 strand of yarn at the end of each 5 row block. Cut the dropped yarn, leaving a short tail, then crochet over both loose ends (joined and dropped) to eliminate the need for weaving in.
