FINISHED MEASUREMENTS: Throw measures approximately 40"/101.5 cm wide x 55"/139.5 cm long.
GAUGE 13 sc and 14 rows = 4"/10cm.
STITCHES USED Chain (ch), single crochet (sc), slip stitch (sl st).
SPECIAL TERMS FP-Cl: Front-post cluster—Yarn over, insert hook from front to back and then to front again around post of stitch, yarn over and draw up loop, yarn over and draw through 2 loops on hook (2 loops on hook), [yarn over, insert hook from front to back and then to front again around post of same stitch, yarn over and draw up loop, yarn over and draw through 2 loops on hook] twice, yarn over and draw through all loops on hook, chain 1. FPdc: Front-post double crochet—Yarn over, insert hook from front to back and then to front again around post of stitch, yarn over and draw up loop, [yarn over and draw through 2 loops on hook] twice. Cross-Over: Skip next 2 FPdc 2 rows below, FPdc around next FPdc 2 rows below; working in front of the FPdc just made, FPdc around 2nd skipped FPdc, FPdc around first skipped FPdc.
NOTES 1. When working FPdc, be sure to draw first loop up to height of working row, to avoid puckering the fabric. 2. The FPdc are worked around the post of FPdc 2 rows below the current row, except in Row 4 (where FPdc are worked around the post of sc in Row 2). Do not work into the single crochet stitches behind FPdc. 3. FP-Cl are worked around the sc 3 rows below, in the row immediately above the previous FP-Cl, except in Row 4 (where FP-Cl are worked around the post of sc in Row 2). Do not work into the single crochet stitches behind FP-Cl.
THROW Ch 116. Row 1 (RS): Work in back bumps of ch, sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in each remaining ch across, turn—115 sc. Rows 2 and 3: Ch 1, sc in each st across, turn.

Rows 5 and all odd-numbered (WS) rows: Ch 1, sc in each st across, turn—115 sc. Notes: 1.
