MoroccanMintTea Blanket

Hi there! Here’s a blanket that will take you to the ancient streets of a Moroccan medina! This is not a beginners’ pattern, but I’ve tried to add as much detail as possible and step-by-step pictures for every round. Keeping the stitch count is really important with this kind of project, so I’ve added the stitch count to every round as well. **Yarn & Hook size:** For the step-by-step pictures I used Hobbii Friends 8/4 cotton with a 4mm hook, but you can use whatever yarn & hook size you like, as long as they match and you are happy with the resulting tension **Gauge**: 10 dc in 5 cm **Difficulty**: intermediate **Terminology:** US terms **Materials required**: • Hobbii Friends 8/4 cotton (3500 meters, divided in any number of assorted colors) or any equivalent cake yarn (check the length) • Matching crochet hook (slightly bigger than usual recommended) • Tapestry needle to sew ends • Scissors **Stitches used in this pattern:** • Slip stitch (sl st) • Chain (ch) • Single crochet (sc) • Double crochet (dc) • Single crochet, back loop only (scblo) • Front post single crochet (fpsc) • Front post half double crochet (fphdc) • Front post double crochet (fpdc) • Back post single crochet (bpsc) • Back post half double crochet (bphdc) • Back post double crochet (bpdc) • Puff stitch (see below) • Popcorn stitch (see below) • Picot stitch (see below) • Three double crochet together cluster (dc3tog cluster) • Front post puff stitch (fppuff) • Two front post double crochet together (fpdc2tog) **Other abbreviations:** • Ch-sp: chain space • Sk st: skip stitch
