A versatile Oriental wave pattern, which can be worked in stripes, or plain colours.

This design is composed of a repeating Wave shape, laid out like fish scales. The crocheting is worked back and forth in rows or alternate rows, resulting in the finished textile being reversible (having no right or wrong side).

FEATURES YOU WILL ENJOY

  • Design allows for you to add stripes within the Waves, or make each row of Waves a solid colour, depending on your preference. The colour possibilities are endless.

  • May be used for anything from afghans, to cushion covers, bags and scarves.

  • Includes instructions for working basic straight rows around the edge to square off your workpiece neatly. You can easily work your own decorative border onto this foundation if you’re making an afghan.

  • Requires minimal (if any) blocking

  • Minimal loose ends to sew in at the end, especially when worked in stripes! (Using only 2 colours will result in only 2 loose ends upon completion of your afghan)
