Uphill Both Ways
The Uphill Both Ways crochet blanket pattern is sure to shine as your next gift with it’s unique texture and stripes of color. It’s easy and relaxing to make without being boring. Make it even easier and use self striping cake yarns (Like Lion Brand Mandala) for an awesome effect without all the ends to weave in.
Uphill Both Ways is part of the Popcorn Playground eBook of TextureGhans - a collection of four beautiful blanket patterns that emphasize texture over color or shape.
Complete crochet charts are included and can be used on their own or as a helpful tool with the written pattern.
Instructions for 4 different sizes - Baby, kid/lapghan/ medium throw, and large throw (see details below) - are included in the pattern. Pattern is also very easy to customize to meet your own size requirements - you can increase and decrease width in increments of about 12 inches and length in increments of about 6 inches.
Instructions also include color placement for 6 - 8 different colors in all 4 sizes if you’d like to create your own color palette.
Pattern is also available on Etsy. Click the “visit pattern website” link above to buy it there.
