Textures to Treasure...A Skill Building Throw Pattern Book
$14.98
Description
“Textures to Treasure...A Skill Building Throw” was inspired by a Patons Sampler Afghan pattern that has been out of print for many, many years. The beauty of “Textures to Treasure” is in the assembling – absolutely no sewing is required! All the squares are knit together and the borders knit onto the throw, eliminating the daunting task of hand sewing it all together upon completion. This method of assembly also lends itself nicely to rearranging the placement of squares, creating an original layout, and the provisional techniques featured can also be used on any other throw where squares are knit separately and then need to be joined. Enjoy!
The 29-page ‘Textures to Treasure’ throw pattern consists of 14 different stitch patterns, each square being knit three times, totaling 42 squares in all, to complete the full size throw; blocked to finished measurements of 48" x 56", with yardage given for a single colour, a two-colour and a four-colour throw, as suggestions. This pattern is suitable for an advanced beginner and up.
Of course, you don’t have to knit an exact copy. You could choose to knit a few of your favourite squares several times and fewer of others; or compose your throw of multiples of just a pattern or two. You could also decide to knit fewer squares to make a lap size throw, or knit more squares for a larger throw. Use as many or as few colours as you wish – the options are numerous!
