Abstract Mound Wall Hanging

FREE CROCHET PATTERN

⠀I really liked how this design went on easily. I needed some relief from the complications. I drew the idea on a small piece of paper in principle, and it only took 3 or 4 days to crochet and write the pattern.⠀⠀
This pattern is for intermediate crocheters who are comfortable working with more than one color.
This pattern includes a colored graphic Chart with detailed instructions that come with an easy-to-read, easy-to-understand pattern and are written in U.S. Terminology., and pictures on how to crochet and assemble all the parts to make this wall hanging.

  • The Pattern is written in US terms.

  • The Wall Hanging is worked in rows.

  • The Wall Hanging is worked from the bottom up.

  • The first stitch of each row should be placed into the same stitch as the turning chain.

  • The turning chain doesn’t count as 1st stitch of the row.

  • The odd rows are the right rows and the even rows will be the wrong side.

  • The Wall Hanging is worked in “Single Crochet Stitch”.

  • The pattern is written as a color abbreviation, for example, 10 (A) means 10 single crochets in the color Light Cream.

  • Color change is made with the final yarn over and pull through of the last stitch before the color change.  For Example: with color A, insert hook in stitch, yarn over, pull up a loop, with color B, yarn over and draw through both loops on hook, proceed with color B stitches.

  • The wall Hanging is worked up using the Intarsia Crochet method.

  • For Intarsia Crochet, you will not carry the non-working yarn. Let the yarn hang from the last stitch. You will probably have a bobbin or ball of yarn attached to each color block section of your project; I use this method in the rest of the project.

  • The gauge in the pattern is indicative and not mandatory. You can use any type or thickness of yarn you prefer; this will give you a different texture and a different size according to your needs.

Surface Overlay Crochet

Now you can apply Surface Overlay Crochet Line if you want, and here is a detailed explanation of what you should do here:

1- With (E), Make a slip knot, take slip knot off-hook, with yarn and slip knot below work, insert hook from first stitch.

2- Put slip knot on hook, tighten, pull loop back up through same. Working yarn will be under work.

3- Insert hook in next, with yarn below work, yo, pull up loop, pull through loop on hook; repeat from * across (approx. 25 chs) in straight line.

4- Fasten off, weave in ends.

Attaching the wooden dowel/tree branch:

After finishing the last row in your wall Hanging, don’t fasten off or cut your yarn, just continue and work SC around the branch/dowel:

1-   Insert the hook into the first stitch and under the wood dowel, grab the yarn in the other hand.

2-   Yarn Over, then pull through the loop and repeat till you reach the last stitch.

3-   Now, chain about 60-70 chains to make the hanging Strap.

4-   Attach the last chain into the first chain on the dowel with Slip Stitch.

5-   Fasten Off and Wave ends.

Finishing
  • Attaching the Fringes:

- To Create the Fringe cut 20 cm / 8-inch pieces of yarn in … you will need 2 strands to complete one Fringe.

- To attach the Fringe, grab 2 strands of yarn, use a larger crochet hook and punch the hook through the f foundation chain on the bottom of the piece, fold the 2 strands in half and loop the middle of the strands onto the crochet hook and pull the loop of strands through the foundation chain.

- You can use a wooden comb to straighten the fringe before cutting them.

  • Blocking:

- You can Block your Wall Hanging with Steam, and let it dry in until completely dry.

- You can also wash it with lukewarm water, get rid of the water by gently squeezing it, leave it on a clean towel placed on a flat surface and leave it until it dries completely.
