The Easter Weekend is upon us… and it really is one of my favourite times of the year!
We were in Northern Spain for Easter last year which I wrote a blog post about here and I took this photo of my crocheted Mini Easter Hanging Baskets – it was such a beautiful place to visit! The free pattern for those little baskets is still available here 🙂
Well this year we’re staying home for Easter and I’m looking forward to a long weekend with quality family time and of course some crochet!
So onto week 11 of our blanket and here’s a round up of this weeks blankets from Instagram
I’ve also set up a Facebook Group page Coastal Crochet CAL if any of you are interested in sharing progress there if you’re not on Instagram… 🙂
This week, as I’m sure many of you may have guessed, we’re continuing with the Long Wave Stitch we started last week and these rows are a repeat of Rows 16 – 19. At the end of Row 42 you should have made 1ch which counts as the first dc (US sc) of this next row… Remember I use UK terminology!
Row 43 1htr in next 2 sts, continue with (2tr, 3dtr, 2tr, 2htr, 3dc, 2htr) and repeat to end, the final st will be a htr, 1ch, (counts as 1st dc of next row- you may want to put a stitch marker in this ch so it is easier to recognise when crocheting back into it after next row), turn
Row 44 1dc in each st to end, join with a new colour at end of final st, 4ch (counts as first dtr of next row), turn
Row 45 1tr in next 2 sts continue with (2htr, 3dc, 2htr, 2tr, 3dtr, 2tr) and repeat to end, the final st will be a tr, 1ch (counts as 1st dc of next row- you may want to put a stitch marker in this ch so it is easier to recognise as a stitch when crocheting back into it after next row), turn
Row 46 1dc in each st to end, join with a new colour at end of final st, 1ch (counts as first dc of next row- again you may want to put a stitch marker in this ch so it is easier to recognise when crocheting back into it after next row), turn
And that’s it… 🙂
Have a fabulous Easter weekend Everyone and enjoy that crochet! 🙂 🙂
