Day 13 Instagram @made.by.hem Abbreviations (UK terms) What you will need: Knitcraft Cotton Blend in st(s) - stitch(es) White (yarn A), Teal (yarn B), ss – slip stitch Lilac (yarn C) ch – chain stitch 5mm crochet hook dc – double crochet Tapestry needle YA – Yarn A Scissors YB – Yarn B YC – Yarn C Pattern Notes This pattern is worked bottom up. Turn your work at the end of each row. Turning ch does not count as a st throughout. Tapestry crochet Tapestry crochet enables you to create coloured patterns within your crochet work. When changing colour pick up the new yarn colour on the last yarn over from the previous stitch. For example, to work a stitch in YA (White) followed by a stitch in YB (Teal): With YA, insert hook into next stitch and pull up a loop, drop YA, yarn over with YB and pull through both loops. You are now ready to work your next stitch with YB. When not being used to work the current stitch, YA is always carried within your work by working the new stitch(es) over the top. All other yarn colours (YB and YC) should be released to the WS of the work once the final stitch of that colour as been made in each row. The yarns will then be ready to be picked up again in the following row.
