Classic Elite Yarns Liberty Wool Print Throw eBook Crochet

Classic Elite Yarns Liberty Wool Print Throw

Project Overview

This downloadable eBook pattern provides instructions for creating a beautiful crochet throw blanket using the Classic Elite Yarns Liberty Wool Print collection. The finished throw measures approximately 38 inches by 50 inches and is constructed from twelve individual granny squares, each measuring 12 inches by 12 inches. The design combines twelve different printed colorways from the 2016 Liberty Wool Print subscription series with two contrasting solid colors to create a unified, visually striking finished piece.

What Is Being Made

A crochet throw blanket composed of twelve granny squares arranged and joined together, with a coordinating border worked around the entire perimeter. The throw is designed as an intermediate project suitable for crocheters of easy skill level who are comfortable with basic crochet techniques and square construction.

Crochet Techniques Used

• Adjustable ring foundation for starting each granny square
• Multi-round square construction with increasing complexity
• Color changes and yarn joining throughout the project
• Square assembly methods including sewing, slip stitch joining, or single crochet seaming
• Border work around the completed assembled throw
• Weaving in ends for finishing

Crochet Stitches Used

• Double crochet (dc) – the primary stitch forming the body of each granny square
• Chain stitch (ch) – used for spacing and structure within rounds
• Slip stitch (sl st) – for joining rounds and assembling squares
• Single crochet (sc) – an optional joining method for connecting squares together

Granny Square Construction Details

Each granny square begins with an adjustable ring and is worked in the round over multiple rounds. The pattern uses a classic granny square construction with chain spaces and clustered double crochets. Round 1 establishes the foundation with double crochet groups separated by chain-2 spaces. Round 2 increases the square size by working additional stitches in the spaces created in the previous round. The pattern round is then repeated to build the square to its full 12-inch finished size. The color work involves joining different yarn colors at corner spaces and working designated rounds with each color before transitioning to the next.

Yarn and Materials

This project uses Liberty Wool by Classic Elite Yarns, a 100% washable wool yarn. Each ball contains approximately 122 yards and weighs 50 grams. The yarn requirements include:

• Color A (Slate 7803) – 3 balls for the base color
• Color B (Magenta 7805) – 3 balls for contrast
• Color C – 12 balls of assorted Liberty Wool Print colorways from the 2016 subscription series (1 ball each)

A size G/6 (4.5 mm) crochet hook is required. Gauge is one granny square measuring 12 inches by 12 inches. While exact gauge is not crucial to the success of the project, working close to the stated gauge and maintaining consistency throughout all squares is recommended for a cohesive finished throw.

Skill Level and Finished Measurements

This pattern is rated as Easy skill level, making it accessible to crocheters with basic experience. The finished throw measures approximately 38 inches wide by 50 inches long, making it an ideal size for a lap throw or small blanket suitable for draping over furniture or using as a decorative accent piece.
