I’ve been adding the Caron One Pound Golden yarn (which is about a shade darker than the goldish color in cake), every other color sequence so when I add the border using this yarn it will be part of the color sequence. So combination of this and 3 big cakes gives me a 38” height. Halfway point to my desired height of 78”.
Worked on this project on and off through the year and a half. One of those projects that got put to the side as I worked on other projects.
Repeat Row 2 until you reach the desired height.
Round 1: Sc evenly around sides- in ch 2 space of shell - 2 Sc; in ch 3 space of shell - 3 Sc, In Corners- Sc, Ch 2, Sc.

Double Shells Throw
Notes
Shell Used in pattern - 2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc
Could work dc in back loops - OR –
Alternate Dc in back loops, Dc in Front Loops on every other row.
While doing front loop/back loop on 1st and last stitch of row make sure you go through both loops (v) of stitch to prevent holes on edges.
More Dc’s = less lacy/holey, more Shells = more lacy/holey
