I’ve dubbed this the Diamondback Graph because the design is so very versatile. I have made both a blanket and a pocket shawl with the graph, but you could also make a pillow, table runner, placemat, pencil skirt—anything you can imagine! I cannot wait to see what you come up with! I have also included a YouTube tutorial since it is a more advanced technique, using tapestry crochet techniques.

Supplies Needed:

-yardage will vary based on your project, but for my pocket shawl I used approximately 500 yards of each color (I only used 2 colors). For a blanket, I would triple that amount.
-Hook in size of choice (I used the recommended hook size on the yarn label)
- Yarn needle, scissors, tape measure
