Today I am sharing a crocheted throw I made recently for one of my nieces.
I knew she would like one made in a light grey yarn, so when I saw
Blossom Crochet had used this King Cole Beaches yarn
on one of her projects HERE, I knew it would be perfect for my niece's throw.
I especially love the pattern of the variegated shades of grey and white
when it's crocheted.

I used the lovely textured Cluster Kisses 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, tips and techniques to share, so I would really recommend you

I started by deciding how wide I wanted the throw to be and using a
4mm crochet hook I chained 142 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, five rows of
half trebles, and one row of crab stitch.

I purchased the yarn from Little Wool Shop
using 8 x 100g balls of King Cole Beaches DK in 'Shell Beach'
