Ch 51 with multi color yarn

Row 1: SC in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across. 50 sc

Row 2: Ch1, sc in 1st sp and each space across. At last sc pick up the solid color yarn: with 2 loops on hook for sc, drop the current color, yo with 2nd color to complete the sc. 50 sc. See photo above.

Row 3: ch 2, hdc in 1st sp and each sp across. 50 hdc

Row 4: ch 2, hdc in 1st sp ea sp across. At last hdc pick up the multi color yarn: with 3 loops on hook for hdc, drop the current color, yo with 2nd color to complete the hdc. See photo above. 50 hdc

Rows 5: Ch1, sc in 1st sp and each space across. 50 sc

Row 6: Repeat row 2

Rows 7: Repeat row 3

Row 8: Repeat row 4

Repeat rows 5 – 8 for pattern. Will end with 20 rows of multi-color and 18 rows of solid color. Begin and end with 2 rows of multi-color.

Tie off at last row of multi-color. Do NOT tie off the solid color yarn.

Border Scallops:

With N hook pick up the solid color yarn where it was left last (row 36). Working along the edge, pull up yarn for 1 loop on hook. Create a sc in same space.

*Skip next sp, enter 5 dc’s in next sp, skip next sp, enter sc* in next sp. Repeat from * to * around entire blanket.

Spaces will be tricky to find along the left and right edge sides. Improvise as needed. The pattern is very adaptable. Enter one scallop in each corner. You might need to enter two sc’s (not skipping a sp) when reaching the corners if you don’t end up “evenly” at the corner. Please refer to video

Tie off and weave in ends if needed.
