Roughly, this project starts with a chain of 102 simple chains, and then it is folded and joined for round 2 and then you have to keep working on increasing those 102 stitches.
Making only the roll case is comparatively simple and a beginner can easily attempt it but making the Ammonite part is slightly tricky.
A very detailed written post is available on Dedris’s blog here.
Tips from a Beginner to the Beginners:
– Always go for a multi-colored yarn when you are a beginner and trying to make a project which involves a lot of counting.
– The different colors makes it easy to remember counts.
– Make the first starting chain a little loose, preferably with a bigger hook, else the starting chain will be tight and the next double crochet will be loose making the work look curved.
This pattern of crochet blanket is the fastest i have ever made, simple and fast crochet pattern for beginners.
I am loving this blanket pattern called the Archway, it creates little archways like pattern and most importantly it is very very easy and relaxing to create.
This is my first big project after making small stuff like flowers and bookmarks. It took me a good 2-3 weeks to complete, not because it was tough or time consuming but because I was not getting much time after running after my toddler the whole day.
This project is really the easiest one I have made till now. Very beautifully explained and made easy by this YouTuber.
I learnt crochet in school but reluctantly, because it was required as a part of my curriculum. This time, i am learning it because i really want to 😀
I will be chronicling my crochet journey here with time stamps so that anyone having an iota of interest in crocheting can see the difference from 0 to hopefully-an-expert-chrocheter-someday.
