Hoban

Hoban (aka Wash) is part of the Shiny afghan block collection. Get ready for some fun! This pattern is mostly straightforward but has a few rounds that make it an advanced pattern - specifically one round where you'll be using two yarns at once. Also keep an eye on the special stitches - you'll be making two different types of picots. It sounds complicated, but lots of photos are included to help you through, and I'm sure by the end, you'll be having more fun with it than anything. Hoban is available as a stand alone pattern and within the [Shiny 2 ebook][1]. [The Shiny collection][2] is comprised of two ebooks and one bonus pattern, and includes ten 12 inch afghan squares with matching stitch counts for easy joining and swapping and one stitch pattern for bordering or making filler squares. ***For details on yarn used in this square and complete details on the construction of the afghan, [click here to read the blog post.][3]*** <hr> Visit me, Polly Plum, get help or support, and stay up to date on new patterns by: [checking out my website][4], everytrickonthehook, for things like tutorials and free patterns; liking [Every Trick on the Hook on Facebook][5]; following [polly_plum_crochet on instagram][6]; visiting [Polly’s Place on Ravelry][7]; or get lots of help and support from the Facebook group, [Polly Plum Pattern Posse][8].
