Downloadable Pattern: Centerpiece Treasure Afghan

Lion Brand® Wool-Ease®

GAUGE:

18 sts and 24 rows = 4 in. [10 cm] in St st worked in the round (k every round). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

STITCH EXPLANATION:

M1 (make 1) An increase worked by lifting the horizontal thread lying between the needles and placing it onto left needle. Knit this new stitch through the back loop.

M1 as if to purl (make 1 st as if to purl) An increase worked by lifting the horizontal thread lying between the needles and placing it onto the left needle. Purl this new stitch through the back loop.

NOTES:

Afghan is worked from center out, beginning with a few stitches and increasing to many. Change to longer needle lengths as needed.
