Week Sixteen Of The Country Garden Crochet Along

It’s week 16 of the Country Garden crochet along. This week we’re making the Arrow stitch, a beautiful 3d effect stitch that is a type of Cable. This is a great looking stitch that is well worth the effort. We will be starting this panel above the Puff Flower panel.

If you would like the ad free printable version, it is available either as part of my Lifetime Pattern Pass, or you can purchase it on its own for just £5 from Ravelry

This pattern is written in US terms, but the UK translation are:

ch (Chain)
sc (single crochet) = Double crochet
dc (double crochet) = treble crochet

If you would like to follow my colour scheme in either Paintbox Cotton Aran or Caron Simply Soft, you can find my colours here
