Spirit of India

Thanks for your interest in my first rectangular center out pattern. I’m loving creating India styled patterns and I wanted to create an elephant pattern, and I wanted the elephants to have their trunks raised as symbolically it is thought to bring positive energy, good luck and fierce protection. There is a video link below to get you started with the first few rounds, once you get used to the corners its just overlay mosaic crochet! Included in the download is the WRITTEN PATTERN, CHARTS, AND FULL CHART. There are 114 rounds, the last round of the blanket, the long sides have 273 stitches, and the short sides have 225 stitches. The pattern uses US Terminology. There’s also pictorial section below but the video has a lot more information if you’re new to rectangular patterns.

I used 8/4 pure cotton yarn, 1,700 of the background colour, and 1,600 of the detailed colour, and it measures 115/92cm. 45/36 inches so with DK yarn it will fit a single bed!
