This Destination Unknown Afghan is like having two afghans in one using my double overlay mosaic crochet technique! The front of the afghan has a mesmerizing illusion of a hidden door, while the back has a repeating Hitomezashi stitch pattern! If weaving in the ends, or hiding them in an envelope border, is your least favorite part of a mosaic project, you’ll love making this afghan. It starts two rows at a time with a two-color chain for the fringe, the rows are worked separately, then joined together again to complete the two-color chain fringe at the end of the two rows. This “two-colour chain DS” is created by, and used with permission of, Assia Brill, creator of the Distitch technique. You can learn this two-colour chain DS on Assia Brill’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1IJzsKKCXY. To learn about Hitomezashi stitch patterns, visit Numberphile on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbfhzlMk2eY. Can you guess what words were used to generate the stitch pattern for this afghan? The answer is on the back (check out the last photo)!

BONUS: If you prefer an overlay mosaic version to the double mosaic technique, a pre-ticked overlay mosaic chart for the afghan front is also included with this pattern! Materials: The afghan was created with 4000 yds. of acrylic DK weight yarn and a size 6/0 (3.50 mm) crochet hook. A size 7/0 (4.00 mm) crochet hook is optional, for the beginning border only. Stitch markers are highly recommended. Finished Sizes: 43″ wide x 51-1/2″ long (not including fringe) This pattern is written in standard U.S. terms with additional terms created to define the double stitches. ------------------------------------------------------------------ **ACCESSING PATTERN PURCHASES ON ETSY** At the time of purchase, Etsy will email you a link to the pattern file(s); however, you can access your downloads at any time as follows: 1.

This is a beautiful vintage collection of 17 knit edging. Adding a border or edging of some kind can transform a plain garment into something a little more fancy. Edgings can be simple, textural, scalloped, or lacy and there is no end to stitch alternatives. Edgings can be worked horizontally along the cast-on edge, or vertically as a strip that is sewn in place once it is complete. Simple edgings are worked over just a few stitches and rows and take very little time to complete. Bobble and lace edgings, which involve increasing and decreasing stitches and a more complex written pattern, can take a little longer, but are a pretty alternative to a plain rib border, for example. More elaborate edgings, such as lace, tend to work better in a crisp, fine yarn such as cotton, since this gives clear stitch definition and is less likely to stretch. Before you add a border , think carefully about what style would be most suitable for the garment; a simple border works well on a complex piece, while a lace border is more effective on a plain piece.
