MADE IN SQUARES AND CROCHETED TOGETHER LIKE AN OLD-FASHIONED QUILT (PATCHWORK)
Material:
12 skeins White rug yarn;
9 skeins Blue rug yarn;
size J crochet hook
1st Block: Using 1st. color—ch. 15 turn.
Work over your 2nd color (lay the strand of yarn along your work and sc. with the 1st. color as usual). This is done throughout—using alternating colors as the block indicates.
Row 1: 1st. color—1 sc. in 2nd ch. from hook and in each st. across ch. Ch. 1 turn. Pull the strand of yarn you’re working over to the back of your work after the Ch. 1 in each row. (To keep your work smooth on the edges.)
Rows 2 to 14: 1 sc. in each st. across row—ch. 1 to turn each row. Tie off yarn. Keep the yarn you are working over just tight enough not to pull your work. It is supposed to show through (note picture).
