Easter decoration

 

 I used 3 strands of white dmc thread (B5200) and 2,7 mm rocacill beads. I tested two different withs of band, I prefers the thinest one (3mm).

Grytlapp #1 / Potholder #1

This potholder is made in four separate pieces which is then sewn together and finished with crocheting a frame.

The two last rows are made in an alternate colour.

Row 1: 21 ch (chain stitches) and make a slip stich in the first chain.

Row 2: 6 sc (single crochet) 3 sc in the same chain stitch, 6 sc. End the row with a chain stich and turn the work around.

Row 3: 7 sc, 3sc in 1, 7 sc, 1ch turn.

Row 4: 8 sc, 3sc in 1, 8 sc, 1ch turn.

Row 5: 9 sc, 3sc in 1, 9 sc, 1ch turn.

Row 6: 10 sc, 3sc in 1, 10 sc, 1ch turn.

Row 7: 11 sc, 3sc in 1, 11 sc, 1ch turn.

Row 8: 12 sc, 3sc in 1, 12 sc, 1ch turn.

Change colour

Row 13: 17 sc, 3sc in 1, 17 sc, 1ch turn.

Row 14: 18 sc, 3sc in 1, 18 sc, 1ch turn.

When you fasten the threads I recommend that you leave a long thread to sew together with, but only in two of the four pieces.
