Cool Cotton Throw by Amy B Stitched

Cool Cotton Throw

This pattern is available for free.

This pattern was once only available in Donna Kooler’s Crocheted Afghan book. The rights have reverted back to me and I am now offering it for FREE on my blog.

This throw works two rows on the same side before turning, which enables you to change colors every row without cutting. The woven appearance comes from using a double crocheted mesh, followed by a row of treble crochet alternately worked in front and behind the previous rows’ spaces.
