If you are looking for a crochet project with a mesmerizing design, this Spirals Throw by Marilyn Losee will undoubtedly capture your heart! It comes in wonderful sky tones that will bring summer vibes to your home in a glamorous style. It may come as a surprise to you, but you only need a set of basic stitches to create this beautiful eyelet texture and spiral motif.
What Type of Yarn Works Best for This Throw?
Use worsted yarn combined with a 6.5 mm crochet hook to get the same stunning results. The photopraghed sample was made with Caron One Pound. It’s a 100% acrylic yarn in aran weight that offers softness and high durability.
Two complementary shades will create a modern and elegant effect, highlighting the spiral design. The light-toned colorway of blue and white proposed for this blanket is truly delightful, but feel free to use any other shade selection that you like.
How the Spirals Throw Is Worked
This crochet throw pattern will suit intermediates and experienced crocheters. You work each spiral motif separately before joining them into panels. In the end, the panels are sewn together to form a uniform fabric.
Can I Resize the Spiral Throw?
The number of spiral motifs and panels will depend on how large you want your throw to be. As a result, you can very easily adjust this crochet blanket to any size.
The original design features 98 spiral motifs worked into 7 panels (14 spirals per panel), which creates a 62″ wide by 68″long (158 cm x 173 cm) afghan. To make it wider, simply add more panels, and to make it longer, increase the number of spiral motifs for each panel.
