ColourSpun Yarn
• The yarn used in this option is ColourSpun 8 Ply DK weight (No. 3 USA). ColourSpun is a South African brand, which we are justifiably very proud of for the following reasons: o ColourSpun yarn is created by hand; therefore, each skein is imbued with the artist's
energy and will have its own unique characteristics. o Cotton is the most used textile fiber in the world. It is a non-allergenic cellulose fiber that
doesn't irritate sensitive skin and is ideal for warmer weather. o ColourSpun Pure Cotton Yarn is ring spun, (a process that gives greater durability while
maintaining softness, making it perfect for knitting and crochet) from the finest quality, locally produced, pure, natural cotton and coloured by hand in the ColourSpun studio using a chemical free, earth-friendly process. All the dyes used are GOTS approved and have excellent wash fast and light fast properties.
• If you decide to use a heavier weight yarn, your throw will be substantially bigger than the sample made in this pattern. ColourSpun have other options and a visit to their website is recommended – www.colourspun.com. Please contact The Yarn Tree for quantities and pricing if you wish to use a heavier ColourSpun Pure Cotton – www.theyarntreesa.co.za.

Ordering Kits
Please use the order forms located in the tables above to place your order on The Yarn Tree (South Africa). Kindly indicate your colourway preference on the order form. Please contact The Yarn Tree for quantities and prices if you wish to
use an alternative weight yarn or different colours.
Gauge Whilst gauge is less important when making an item such as a throw, it will affect the quantities of yarn required. It is very important to work with a consistent gauge (tension). This is especially true when working with complicated mixtures of stitches and techniques. The best advice I can give is that you lay your work down after each round to ensure that it is lying flat. This is a good indicator that your gauge is correct. There will be times when I will indicate that the work may be a bit wavy while working a section. When I specifically make mention of this, then there is no need to worry – subsequent rounds will correct the “wave”.
ColourSpun Option I used two different hook sizes for this project. This is for the following reasons:
• The main hook size used for this project is the 3.5mm (E/4).
• I tend to work my single crochet stitches quite tightly. The tapestry section is worked in single crochet and I used a 4mm (G/6) hook for this section to adjust my tension slightly. This resulted in the throw lying flat and the corners being sharp;
• Your gauge may be different to mine especially if you are working in yarns other than those specified. As mentioned above, lay the work flat from time to time to check that your gauge is working out. If not, it is quite alright to adjust your hook sizes accordingly.
My gauge - using a 3.5 mm (E/4) hook – Part 1 should measure 25 cm x 45 cm (10 x 17 ¾ inches). My gauge - using a 4.00 mm (G/6) hook – Part 4, the tapestry section, should measure: 10cm (4 in) = 10 rows x 10 sts.
Stylecraft Option I did not make a sample in Stylecraft. My recommendations below are based on my prior experience using this yarn. You should use 4.0 mm [G/6 US size] and 4.5mm [7 US size] hooks for this option. The finished item will be larger than the ColourSpun option.
• The main hook size used for this project would be a 4.0mm (G/6).
• I tend to work my single crochet stitches quite tightly. The tapestry section is worked in single crochet and I would use a 4.5mm (7) hook for this section to adjust my tension slightly.
PAGE 10
NAUTICAL©
Hook Size • If you have a loose tension, it is recommended that you adjust your hook sizes down from the
recommended sizes in this pattern.
• If you have a particularly tight tension, you may wish to adjust your hook sizes up.
Blocking
Why Block? It is my considered opinion that blocking of most projects is a very important step towards achieving a professional finish. If you would like to know more about this important process, please download a document I have prepared about this subject.
Difficulty
I have given this pattern an intermediate rating. With the assistance of the video tutorials, I believe that even beginners would be able to easily complete the project, however, you would need to have basic crochet skills, as this is not a “how to crochet” project.

Part 2 Please check your gauge/tension frequently from this point onwards. Your work should lie flat and
the corners should be nice and sharp. I recommend that you go up half a hook size for Part 4 (the
tapestry section), however, based on how your work is lying, you may want to introduce the larger
hook earlier. Trust your instincts.

1. Please print out the chart for this section. Cut and join the two pages together. Mark off as
you complete each round. 2. Rounds 60 to 79 will be worked in tapestry crochet. Please watch the video tutorial if you
are new to tapestry crochet. 3. Work your sc stitches in the back loop only. This will ensure that the tapestry stays nice and
straight. 4. You will be using two colours for each round. 5. You will carry the colour not in use and work over it, thereby hiding the strands of yarn
within the stitches. You will change colours by completing the last stitch with the new colour.
6. Separate the balls of yarn by placing one ball to your left and the other ball to your right. This will help prevent tangling.
7. You will need to be very careful of having a consistent tension. Don’t pull the carried yarns too tight. They also should not be too loose. Finding the right tension is very important for a professional finish.
8. The sailing boat: a. You have three options here:
i. Work from the chart – refer to details in points c. and d. below, OR ii. Work from the written pattern. The written instructions for the sailing boat
repeat are shown in curly brackets as follows: {5scD, 26scE, 9scD} for example you will work 5sc in Colour D, 26sc in Colour E and 9sc in Colour D.
iii. Use both the chart and the written pattern. My preferred option. b. Long side:
i. You will work 8 sailing boats along each of the long sides. c. Short side:
i. You will work 6 sailing boats along each of the short sides.

9. At the end of each round you have two options for working with the colour you are carrying: a. Fasten off and secure ends and then reintroduce for the next round. b. Carry up to the next Round and continue to work with it.

Play Video Tutorial: Right Handed Left Handed Tip: Please read the notes above before starting on Rounds 60 to 79. Reminder – we are working in the back loops only! In Rounds 60 and 61 we will be adjusting our stitch count on the short side only by 2 on each Round – this is done by skipping the hidden stitch and skipping the last stitch before the corner.

Depending upon your gauge/tension, you may benefit from going down half a hook size for the block stitch section. I found it beneficial to do this. You will find that even with adjusting hook size, the edges may be a little wavy. This will correct itself after the next bphdc round – Round 91.
00:01:30 Play Video Tutorial: Right Handed Left Handed Change to 3.5mm hook (ColourSpun) or 4.00mm hook (Stylecraft). Tip: We will be adjusting the stitch count down the long side. This is done with a “sk 3sts (count the hs)” just after the corner. The short side does not need this adjustment and we will only sk 2sts (count the hs).

Round 97 is very wordy and needs to be followed carefully. The corners in this round are handled
very differently to what we have done so far in this pattern. I decided to write the instructions for
the Round out in full to make it easier for our less experienced friends to follow. It is not a difficult
Round when you see it demonstrated in the video.
