Other notes: Join
in new colours with a sl st. When
working htc sts, make sure to place sts behind ch2 of hrt cl row. I recommend using this method of joining colours for this project.
Special stitches:
Heart cluster - [dc3tog, ch1, dc3tog] in same st.
Half treble crochet - this is a standard st, but is however, not
widely used. Yo twice, place hook in st,
pull up a loop, yo, pull through 2 loops, yo, pull through remaining loops.
With white ch 28
Row 1 Hdc in 2nd ch from hook and in
every ch, (27hdc).
Row 2 Ch1 turn, hdc in each st across, fasten off.
Row 3 With pink, join with sl st and ch4 (counts as
dc, ch1), sk next 2 sts, hrt cl in next st, [ch2, sk next 3 sts, hrt cl in next
st,] 5 times, ch1, dc in last st, (2dc, 6hrt cl, 5 ch2 sp, 2 ch1 sp), fasten
off.
Row 4 With white, join with sl st, ch1, hdc in same
st, htc in 1st sk st from row below, [3hdc in ch1 sp (in centre of
hrt cl), htc in centre sk st from row below] 5 times, hdc in last st.
Rows 5 & 6 repeat row 2.
Rows 7-14 repeat rows 3-6 twice.
Rows 15 & 16 repeat rows 3 & 4.
Row 17 repeat row 2, do not fasten off.
Sc evenly around cloth, placing [sc, ch2, sc] in each corner, join,
fasten off and weave in ends.
Pin it for later...
