Important Notes

• Due to the nature of diagonal stitches (which visually cover stitches behind them), it is recommended to use charts together with the written instructions when working multiple-color versions, or use the written pattern on its own.

My Blanket
Hook: 2.5 mm
Weight: 1450 g
Size: 107 × 136 cm

Yarn C1:

• Background – YarnArt Flower, color 272. Yardage used: 1 cake + approximately 1/3 of another. I used the brown-beige section left over from a previous project.
• White knot on the main panel, blue knot and white background for the border – Oxford Eco Cotton Baby. Approximate usage: 7 skeins of white and 1.5 skeins of blue.

Yarn C2:

• Black – FILMAR chainette yarn, art. NILO Nm 4.000 (400 m / 100 g), color NL012 (black). I had a cone with 743 g of yarn. It was just slightly not enough – I ran out halfway through the very last round of single crochet and finished it with a different black yarn.
