Use it Up and Make it Do...

Here is a stitch pattern that my Grandmother (yes, the one who was the Tatter) taught me many many years ago...It's a great pattern for using up all those pretty bits of yarn and making something lovely of it...


It's a solid row of 1/2 double crochet followed by a row of three double crochet, skip one/chain one, repeat till end...and then a solid row again.  There was enough of this pretty pastel yarn in the stash to make a prayer shawl as shown here...


I once had enough fall colored yarn bits in the stash and a beautiful variegated yarn for the solid rows to make an afghan.  This is really one of those wonderful use it up and make it do patterns that has endless possibilities...so what can I say but "Use it Up and Make it Do".
