CHOOSING YOUR YARN

The patterns have been written for Stylecraft Life DK. This is a true DK weight of yarn that knits to a tension of 22sts and 30 rows on 4mm knitting needles. Although we hope that you will be using either our Life DK or Special DK, if you have found a substitute yarn then check the ball band for the knitted tension information. There are some hints and tips from Jane a little further on about how to achieve she correct crochet tension and Pretty Lily Pond Blanket Crochet Along.

Stylecraft Life DK comes in 100g balls and has a length of 326yds/298 metres. If you have chosen an alternative yarn please make sure that the length is as close to Life DK as possible. Yarns that have a different fibre content or a slightly different yarn twist can have varying lengths of yarn, even though they weigh the same. If you are using Special DK instead of Life DK you do not need any extra yarn as there is only a tiny difference in yarn length per 100g ball to do your Pretty Lily Pond Blanket Crochet Along.

CROCHET HOOKS

Jane has used a 3.5mm, 4mm & 4.5mm hook in the project. The 4mm hook is used for the majority of the project, but it is important that you do have all 3 sizes as using the incorrect hook size will affect the appearance of your piece.

The ergonomic design of the hook also means there is a flat area for your thumb to rest on.

OTHER ACCESSORIES

STITCH MARKERS

In order to help you through the making up process of the blanket Jane suggests within the patterns that you use stitch markers to denote certain stitches or help when you are joining your seams later on. Jane tends to use small locking stitch markers – these look like little nappy pins and are really safe as the stitches cannot escape. Locking markers are especially good for holding crochet pieces together while you sew up seams.

Jane suggests that you use a stitch marker to mark every corner stitch on the square motifs, of which there will be a total of 21 pieces. Now to Pretty Lily Pond Blanket Crochet Along,  If you mark each piece with 4 markers and plan to leave them in your work the whole time then you will need a total of 84 markers. This is a lot of markers, so you could mark your stitches with spare pieces of yarn or small pins or hair slides if you prefer.

The blanket will be crocheted together using double crochet, but you will need a sewing needle to sew in all the loose ends.
