Ok.. Let’s get started on Week 12!!

We will be adding Hdc – Half Double Crochet  and Rev Sc – Reverse Single Crochet to this weeks pattern!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Border:

Continuing using the yarn from row 165.

Row 1: You will be working down the side rows. 2 sc in the same st as the the last st in row 165, this makes the 1st corner. sc 244 sts evenly down the side rows of the blanket, 3 sc in the 1st st of row 1(2nd corner made), finish off.  Join yarn to the last stitch of row 1 on the opposite end, ch 1, 3sc in same st (3rd corner made), sc 244 sts evenly up the side rows of the blanket, 3 sc in the 1st st of row 165(4th corner made), join to next st with sl st.

Row 2:  Ch 2 (counts as hdc), Hdc in next 185 sts, 3 hdc in next st(corner made), hdc in the next 246 sts, 3 hdc in next st(corner made), hdc in next 187, 3 hdc in next st(corner made), hdc in next 246 sts, 3 hdc in next st(corner made), hdc in next st, join to top of beginning ch 2. =869 hdc If you are off a couple of stitches due to slight errors.. no worries.. it will all work.

Row 3:  Ch 1, rev sc around(you do not need to do 3 in each corner). = 869 rev sc

Finish off and weave in any ends.

Block your afghan for best results by wet method or carefully use the steam method.

Finished Approximate Size can be different for each person. Mine measured 72″ x 78″ flat.
