Week 2: Maintaining 

Row 81

CH3, turn, skip the 1st CHSP, place a 3DC-cluster in between the clusters of the row below until you reach the end of the row, place a cluster in the CHSP at the end of the row, CH1, 1DC into the 2nd chain of the turning chain in the row below. (80 clusters)

Row 82 

CH3, turn, in the 1st CHSP, place 3DC, place a 3DC-cluster in between the clusters of the row below until you reach the end of the row, do NOT place a cluster in the CHSP at the end of the row, CH1, 1DC into the 2nd chain of the turning chain in the row below. (80 clusters)

Row 83 - 101

Repeat Rows 81 and 82 alternately, ending with a row 81.

Find out the colours for every row in the table below. 

Please note: 

Place a stitch marker on the side where you have to skip the CHSP as a reminder!

Every row will have 80 clusters

Every colour has a different amount of rows, so check for each colour how many rows you are doing.  Tick off the rows as you go along. Place a stitch marker every 10 rows to help you keep track. 

The ‘CH3’ stands for a double crochet (first two chains) and a CH for the CHSP. 

How to change colour 

On the last DC of the row, do not do the last pull through but use the new colour to do the last pull through. 

No mention is made of cutting off the yarn as you will have to do that according to the colour table. So each time you change colours cut it off and remember to sew in the ends at regular intervals! 

Please remember you are not changing colours every row! Check the table below.  

At the end of the week:

Make sure you have sewn in all your ends!
