bernat® blanket™ greek key mosaic crochet blanket

This classic Greek, key meander motif takes its name from the river Meander. It symbolises the bonds of friendship, love and devotion, so it is the perfect gift throw to crochet for weddings and special people in your life.
Step 1

MEASUREMENTS: Approx 46" x 60” [117 cm x 152.5 cm]
GAUGE: 6½ sc and 7 rows = 4” [10 cm] with U.S. M/13 (9 mm) hook
NOTES:
- To change colour, work to last loop on hook of previous colour. Yoh with new colour, draw through loop, tighten
previous colour and proceed with new colour.
- Carry colour when not in use loosely up side of work.
- Each skipped sc has ch-2 worked above it for 2 rows. This establishes the ‘gap’ where Mosaic Dc will later be worked
- Mosaic Dc always replaces sc directly behind it on working row
- WS of your work maintains alternating 2-row striped pattern because you are working in front of chain spaces each time you work Mosaic Dc - you are never working around chain-spaces. The chain-spaces sit behind Mosaic Dc.
- Blanket worked over foundation ch multiple of 4 ch
STITCH EXPLANATION(S):
- Mosaic Dc (Mosaic Double Crochet): Working in front of chain spaces, work 1 dc in skipped sc 2 rows below
