Throw measures 45” wide x 55” long (114.5 x 139.5 cm).

Notes1. Throw is made of 84 marquise motifs worked in joined

rounds with right side facing. Marquise motifs are joined into Strips which are arranged as shown in Assembly Diagram and joined together.

2. To change color, work last stitch of old color to last yarn over. Yarn over with new color and draw through all loops on hook to complete stitch. Proceed with new color. Cut old color.

3. When instructed to work into a stitch or space “2 rounds below”, work into the round numbered 2 less than the current round. For example, if you are working Round 3, a stitch “2 rounds below” is in Round 3 – 2 = Round 1.

4. Beginning and ending tails of Strips are gathered into tassels.

Tassel (Make 4)Cut a piece of cardboard 3” wide and 8” long. Wind a double strand of the desired color yarn lengthwise around the cardboard approximately 50 times. Cut an 12” length of yarn and insert it under all of the strands at the one end of the cardboard; pull up and tie securely. Leave the yarn ends long enough to attach the tassel. Cut the yarn at the opposite end of the cardboard and remove it from the cardboard.

Throw measures about 46 x 59” [117 x 150 cm].

Special StitchesBphdc (Back post half double crochet) = Yarn over, insert hook from back to front and to back again around post of indicated stitch; yarn over and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook), yarn over and draw through all 3 loops (1 loop remains on hook).Fphdc (Front post half double crochet) = Yarn over, insert hook from front to back and to front again around post of indicated stitch; yarn over and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook), yarn over and draw through all 3 loops (1 loop remains on hook).join with sc = Place a slip knot on hook, insert hook in indicated stitch, yarn over and pull up a loop, yarn over and draw through both loops on hook.

Notes1. Read pattern carefully. Pay attention to row turning

instructions. Throw is worked in rows but is only turned every other row.

2. Two right side rows are worked, the first with A and the second with B. Then the piece is turned and two wrong side rows are worked, the first with A and the second with B.

3. Do not fasten off yarn until instructed. Carry color not in use along side of piece when next needed.

4. To change to A at the end of a row, work last stitch with B until only 2 loops remain on hook. Remove the loop of A from stitch marker and place it on the hook. Draw the loop of A through the 2 loops of B to complete the stitch. Drop, but do not cut, B.

5. To change to B at the beginning of a row, insert hook in top ch of beginning ch-3 of previous row, yarn over with dropped strand of B and pull a loop through.
