Description

Zig and zag your way through colorful stripes in this fun Hybrid Crochet (also known as Tunisian Crochet) blanket, a nice introduction to the craft. Crocheted with a long hook, each row containing a forward pass and a return pass, the chevron pattern is shaped with increases and decreases. Using a gradient yarn with a solid keeps the project interesting as the colors slowly change. Pattern by Kira Dulaney of Kira K Designs.
