Youll find playing with color combinations within these limitations is so fascinating, you wont be able to stop. 1. Using a rule, mark out strips of even width on the wrong side of the fabric. Dont worry about the length at this stage, but keep all the strips of even width. 2. Sew the two strips together, one dark, one light, right sides facing, along one side. Cut the strips off at right angles (to measure double the width of one strip). Open it up and you will find that you have joined two small squares which form a rectangle. 3. Take a dark strip and machine-stitc- h it together along the top of the rectangle, right sides facing. Open up and press flat, seams falling one way. 4. Take a light strip and seam it along the right side. Open up and press flat 5. Take another light strip and - . half-doub- 'create a bobble -' stitch (a raised group of stitches) in crochet.

Cluster Stitches Cluster stitches are often made by drawing up longer than usual loops on the hook. Usually your directions will tell you how long to make these loops, but, if not, you will have to experiment to see what length gives you the proper row gauge. When practicing the following stitch, draw up the loops to Vfc inch. In a single stitch on the previous row (yarnover and draw up a long loop) four times; yarnover and draw through eight of the loops on the hook, yarnover and draw through thus making remaining two loops a cluster.
