Lion Brand Large-Eye Blunt Needles (Set of 6) GAUGE: One Square = about 5 x 5 in. (12.5 x 12.5 cm). When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. The needle or hook size called for in the pattern is based on what the designer used, but it is not unusual for gauge to vary from person to person. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make your swatch, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles. Making a Gauge Swatch STITCH EXPLANATION: rev sc (reverse single crochet) Single crochet worked from left to right (right to left, if left-handed). Insert hook into next stitch to the right (left), under loop on hook, and draw up a loop. Yarn over, draw through all loops on hook. NOTES: 1. Afghan is made from 64 Squares sewn tog following an Assembly Diagram. 2. Each Square is worked in joined rnds with RS always facing. A different color is used to make each Square. 3. A border is worked around the entire outer edge of the assembled Afghan. VANNA'S PALETTES Colors
Notes: 1. Each package of VANNA'S PALETTES contains 8 miniature balls of yarn. For this Afghan, you will be making one Square from each of the 64 miniature balls. 2. In order to follow the Assembly Diagram, so that your Afghan looks exactly like the Afghan shown in the photo, you'll need to identify each color yarn in each VANNA'S PALETTES package. 3. To identify the yarn color names, check the photograph of the yarn packages at LionBrand.com. 4. We suggest that you work with one yarn package at a time and that as you finish each Square, you label it with the name of the yarn color. 5. Some of the yarn colors appear in more than one of the packages. Since you are making one Square from each of the miniature balls, you will have more than one Square in these colors. For your convenience, we are providing the following list of the colors included in each package: In #200 Peaceful: Goldfish, Pink Poodle, Pink, Duckie, Sweet Pea, Mint, Little Boy Blue, Bluebell In #201 Happy: Scarlet, Berrylicious, Cheery Cherry, Goldfish, Radiant Yellow, Radiant Lime, Aqua, Sapphire In #202 Romantic: Linen, Taupe, Charcoal Grey, Silver Grey, Purple, Antique Rose, Dusty Rose, Soft Pink In #203 Earthy: Brick, Radiant Orange, Pea Green, Dusty Green, Olive, Taupe, Espresso, Beige In #204 Charming: Magenta, Brick, Rust, Toffee, Dusty Rose, Espresso, Burgundy, Sapphire In #205 Essential: Chocolate, Dusty Purple, Dusty Rose, Beige, Mustard, Honey, Toffee, Pea Green In #206 Iconic: Cranberry, Terracotta, Mustard, Olive, Sapphire, Dusty Purple, Eggplant, Magenta In #207 Spirited: Lime, Pea Green, Fern, Kelly Green, Olive, Sapphire, Silver Grey, Toffee SQUARE (make 64: One in each of the VANNA'S PALETTES (miniature balls) Ch 5; join with sl st in first ch to form a ring.
