A Crocheted Throw/Blanket for my Nephew

 

Today, I am sharing a crocheted throw/blanket I made earlier in the year
for one of my nephews who is a life long West Ham football supporter!


I used the lovely textured Textured Trebles stitch which I found HERE on
the 'Blossom Crochet' YouTube channel.

Rebekah’s tutorials are really easy to follow and she has lots of different
crochet stitches to share.


I started by deciding how wide I wanted the throw to be and using a
 6mm crochet hook I chained 120 stitches.

I then crocheted the two row repeat pattern until I reached the desired length.

I finished by crocheting a border of one row of double crochet, four rows of 
half trebles, one row of slip stitch and one row of half trebles.


I purchased the yarn from Hobbycraft
using 9 x 100g balls of Women's Institute Premium Acrylic
 5 in ‘Plum’ and 4 in 'Turquoise'
