Notes

this was the very first pattern i ever followed. the “Crown” stitch that fills the inside of the throw took 4 rows to actually complete! what fun it was to watch it come to life!! i HATED the acrylic at first, thought it would be stiff and uncomfortable, but it really softened up nicely after i carefully washed and added a bit of snuggles to the rinse!!
it draped beautifully and mama LOVED it!!!
me too!
so much so that im gonna make one for me!

before i washed it i edged the entire throw with a reverse single crochet in a chenille yarn i got off of ebay!! it wasnt in the original pattern, but i wanted something soft on it somewhere!!! it ended up the whole thing was soft!! but it still added that little extra something! <3

Update: My mom still loves it. So much in fact, she packed it away so nothing would happen to it! Haha!
