Scrapsantastic Crochet Throw – MYSTERY CROCHET ALONG
A Scraps of Yarn Project:
The perfect project to do to use up all your bits and pieces from your leftover yarn.
This is completely optional, and it can be worked in coordinated colours.
Difficulty Level | Skills Required
Adventurous Beginner to Intermediate
Basic stitches in simple variations, simple repeats, color changes, shaping and finishing.
You will need to know basic stitches like SC (single crochet) and DC (double crochet).
Special stitches explained and provided in the instructions.
Materials
- Hook – 3, 50 mm (E) & 4, 00 mm (G)
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
Yarn:
Vinnis Colours – DK Nikkim 100% cotton (50 grams/119 meters)
Weight – DK (11 wpi) 3: Light.
Approx 1253 grams / 2975 meters (25/26 balls) – NOTE – this CAN change to less or more!
For this project I used an assortment of colors – there is no preset color coordinates.
Yarn Substitute:
Using the same type of yarn throughout the project is recommended. The pattern suggests Cotton DK yarn, but you are not limited to this type of yarn. Any yarn can be used if you take into consideration your sizing for the project will differ.
Tension | Gauge
Gauge is NOT necessary for this project to be perfect.
However COUNTING your stitches will ensure a true success of this project!
Size
Final Rectangle Blanket Size including border – IT IS A MYSTERY!
Remember – if you use/choose a different yarn weight/hook size your blanket will be a different size!
Helpful Tips | Hints
- With a project of this size, it is recommended to weave in ends as you go.
- Because pieces need to be joined, it is important to count the stitches to ensure success.
- Most importantly, have fun and enjoy the process.
