A Crochet Pattern For A Tetris Inspired Throw
Introducing the Game Over Throw – a delightful creation inspired by the cozy winter vibes of the #HobbiiCozy challenge, a collaborative project with HOBBII yarns.
This unique throw is not just a piece of cozy warmth; it’s a playful homage to the iconic Tetris game, manifested through an array of vivid granny squares in solid colors.
Immerse yourself in the joy of crafting as you crochet each square, bringing to life a Tetris game display that promises both nostalgia and comfort. The name “Game Over Throw” reflects the playful spirit of this project.
Crafted in easy-to-follow US terms, this pattern encourages the use of a variety of granny squares in solid colors. While I used a mixed acrylic and wool yarn, you have the freedom to choose the yarn that resonates with your style.
The completed throw is designed to be approximately 130 x 175 cm, assuming you’ve used the recommended hook size and yarn type. To make your crocheting experience smoother, a printable version of the pattern is provided.
To avoid being overwhelmed at the end, follow the guidance at the completion of each square – simply finish off, cut, and hide your tails. This approach keeps your work manageable and enjoyable throughout.
Creating the Game Over Throw involves making 16 squares for each main color and 69 for the background color. The process of joining these squares is detailed in the enclosed sheet, providing clarity on the placement of each game piece. Note that the colors used for illustration are examples, and specific yarn recommendations for your chosen yarn will be provided.
This is an easy crochet pattern, and for your convenience, a gauge is provided – each square should measure 11 x 11 cm. Refer to the chart showcasing the finished result of your throw and the recommended color placement for each game piece. Let the Game Over Throw bring warmth, nostalgia, and a touch of gaming fun to your space!
