Boreal Throw
The Boreal Throw is a crochet pattern I designed with one of my favorite acrylic wools, Wander from Furls Crochet. The number of colours available is almost unbelievable… you’ll have to check it out. This pattern is published for free on my website and available as a paid pdf in my shops.
Materials
Wander by Furls Crochet
100% acrylic -100 g (240 yds/218 m)
(A) Mist (Gray) x 3 balls
(B) Midnight (Blue) x 2 balls
(C) Snow (Cream) x 2 balls
(D) Thatch (Brown) x 2 balls
(E) Meadow (Green) x 2 balls
Hook
Notions
Gauge
12 sts and 6 rows = 4 in (10 cm), stretched
To check your gauge:
Work Rows 1-2 and check stitch gauge. Adjust hook if needed. Continue working through Row 8 and check row gauge. Adjust hook if needed.
Finished size
44 in wide x 88 in high
(112 cm wide x 224 cm high)
Stitch guide
blo… back loop only
ch… chain
dc … double crochet
dc2tog … 2 dc closed together
RS … right side
sc… single crochet
slst… slip stitch
st… stitch
WS … wrong side
Notes
Starting ch3 counts as a dc. Change colours while completing the last stitch of the row and leave a long tail.
The letter in parenthesis is the colour with which to crochet that (those) row(s).
To make the throw larger, add sts in increments of 14. Adding sts will require more yarn.
